living and working in australia
In this section you will find a brief overview of information on what is required for an employee to live and work in Australia.
People wishing to work and live in Australia, once sponsored by a company on the Subclass 457 Visa program by the Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (www.immi.gov.au), are taxable on income sourced from working and living in Australia only. Every employee liable to taxation in Australia must obtain a Tax File Number (TFN). Non-residents of Australia who receive any Australian sourced assessable income must lodge a tax return.
The Australian tax year ends June 30 and income tax returns must be lodged by the following October 31.
As well as receiving an income, employers are required to make a minimal annual contribution to an employee’s superannuation calculated as a percentage of each employee’s salary. See superannuation.
