THE Australian Taxation Office will “pop-up” at Mount Gambier Marketplace next week to help residents build confidence with tax management.
A pop-up shop will be on-site from September 20 to 22, providing face-to-face advice and demonstrations on ATO’s digital products and services.
ATO assistant commissioner Kath Anderson said it was the perfect opportunity to learn about ATO’s online lodgement tool, myTax and other online services to help manage tax and super affairs, including the myDeductions tool.
“MyTax is streamlined and personalised to your tax affairs, making it suitable for anyone who wants to lodge their own tax return,” Ms Anderson said.
“MyDeductions allows you to snap, save and store individual income tax deductions in a convenient place.
“It is a great way to keep track of your expenses without having to worry about lost and faded receipts.”
Ms Anderson said the ATO’s digital services also provide a variety of other benefits.
“When you visit, we will be able to show you how to use the range of online services and teach you how to do things like set up a myGov account, download the ATO app, find your lost super, lodge and revise activity statements and view your study and training support loan,” she said.
“If you have already lodged, we can show you how to check the progress of your return.”
The pop-up site will run from 9am to 9pm September 20, 9am to 5.30pm September 21 and 9am to 5pm September 22.
No appointment is needed.
