How it works

Three steps. One bigger refund.

No jargon, no pressure. Work through it at your own pace — the figures you type stay on your device until you export the PDF or sign in to save them. Your contact details and questionnaire answers are sent when you unlock the worksheets (see our privacy policy).

  1. 1

    Complete the questionnaire

    Answer a few simple questions about you, your work and your year.

  2. 2

    Pick your occupation & itemise

    Choose your job and fill in the expenses you’ve incurred. Our detailed lists turn them into the exact amounts your return needs.

  3. 3

    Copy the totals & lodge

    Use the accounts summary from Step 2 — it gives you every amount required. Copy them into your tax return and lodge.

Why this is free

A lifetime of tax knowledge, given away.

This site was built by a semi-retired Chartered Accountant with 40+ years’ experience, who has sat across the table from more than 100,000 everyday Australians and walked them through their returns.

For years that advice was billed at $2,500 an hour. The same detailed worksheets — the ones that find the deductions rushed shopfront preparers miss — are now open to everyone, for nothing.

It’s a way of fighting back against the low-quality, conveyor-belt tax preparation that quietly costs honest workers thousands in refunds they were legally entitled to.

Past years

Want extra refunds from past years?

You can usually amend returns going back two years and claim deductions you missed. Two quick steps:

  1. 1

    Run the same worksheets for each prior year to total the expenses you never claimed.

  2. 2

    Lodge an amendment in myGov with the new totals — the ATO tops up your refund.
