As we approach the end of the financial year, it's important to be aware of the key changes to tax regulations that may affect your return.
Key Changes for 2024:
- Tax Bracket Adjustments - The government has made adjustments to tax brackets to account for inflation, which may result in slightly lower tax liability for many taxpayers.
- Work From Home Deductions - The fixed rate method for claiming work from home expenses has been revised. You can now claim 67 cents per hour for running expenses.
- Super Guarantee Increase - The superannuation guarantee rate has increased to 11.5%, affecting employer contributions.
