ATO Tax Time 2021 – Nurses, Midwives, and Healthcare Employees Resource Kit

The Australian Tax Office (ATO) has updated a range of their tax resources to help nurses, midwives, and healthcare employees this tax time.

It’s important that everyone understands what they can and can’t claim at tax time and how to best prepare and lodge their returns, especially after a challenging year. This is why the ATO has prepared a range of resources to help nurses and midwives this tax time.   

Resources  

  1. Nurses and midwives poster: This downloadable poster provides helpful information and a summary on which expenses nurses and midwives can and cannot claim at tax time. 
  2. Health workers Toolkit: This toolkit contains practical and tailored information and tips to help anyone in the health care industry including doctors, nurses, carers, and cleaners to understand what they can and can’t claim in their tax return.
  3. Health workers toolkit: Includes templates for social media posts and a suggested newsletter article ready to use in your relevant communication channels (available on pages 12 and 13).
