How to get a bigger tax refund in 2023
At Etax, your tax return shows an accurate tax refund estimate and it helps you find deductions to increase your tax refund.
How can you get a bigger tax refund?
Here are four important tips:
- Look at the Etax deduction section tips inside your tax return. Etax highlights the deductions that are related to your job, plus ones you’ve claimed before, to help you remember everything you are eligible for. (Plus, you can just chat with an Etax accountant if you have more questions.)
- Keep track of tax deductions year-round.
Work-related tax deductions are an important way to improve your tax refund. Use Etax to save receipts and deductions anytime. Just login to your account and select the “add deductions or receipts for 2023 now” button to upload a receipt. It is then saved and ready for your next tax return. - Enter all of your income. This includes everything earned from your job, Centrelink, bank interest, rental property income and investment income. If you don’t add all of your income at the start, the ATO will find it later and you might get a lower refund than you hoped.
- The Etax Blog is a treasure-chest full of tips to boost your tax refund.
A good place to start is the “increase your tax refund” category.
