Why you need a TAX AGENT and Pay when you can do it for free!!

We at My Tax Refund Today simply understand the complexity of the tax return. Although myGov19 provides many benefits, it cannot replace the knowledge that a Tax Agent may have. As an example, the following topics require in-depth understanding and knowledge of tax principles and laws:

• Calculation of Business Income (ABN)
• Rental/Investment property
• Bank Interest
• Capital Gains
• Dividend Income
• Income on TFN

Above income topics are complicated in nature and there might be a benefit in engaging with a Tax Agent (My Tax Refund Today). We can’t deny that myGov19 is tremendous, but it has its own limitations. Few of them are listed below for your reference:

• Need knowledge and expertise
• Knowledge about tax norms
• Distribution of expenses
• Risk of an Audit

For example: If you are using your car for work purposes and from home to work & visa-versa. How many miles will you claim? As per the tax laws, only miles used for specific purpose and which is work related are claimable not the home to work. This is one of the reasons many people to get an Audit and penalties from ATO for misrepresenting the expenses.

It could be better option to have an expert or professional to get the job done by a Registered Tax Agent( My Tax Refund Today).
