Read this article till finish, this article going to save your money from around $40 AUD to $100 or more than that.
One week ago, my friends ask me about my tax return, how you going to return your tax? Do you need an accountant? And I said to him
“Oh, yes of course I am working as a casual worker, so that obviously I need to return my tax.”
Again, he said to me
“Ok, that’s alright I am going to help you, I have an accountant he only charges you $40 AUD, this is discount for student I am going to give you a discount because of you are student”
Then I said to myself “I can do it by myself why do I need an Accountant, I don’t need to pay that much money”, but later on what I said to him was that I appreciate for your help, till now I don’t have a PAYG summary, after I get a PAYG I will let you know.
Then I went to home and I done everything by myself save a $40 AUD. I am going to give you an idea how you also can save that much money or more than that.
