If you're getting your payment from the ATO-

Your tax bonus payment will be:

* $900 if your taxable income is up to and including $80,000
* $600 if your taxable income is between $80,001 and $90,000, and
* $250 if your taxable income is between $90,001 and $100,000.

Your payment will not be used to offset any of your other tax debts.

Payments will start from early April 2009. People who have already had their tax returns assessed will be the first to receive their payment. The fastest way to receive payment is directly into your bank account.

The later you lodge your 2007-08 tax return, the longer it will take for you to get your payment. E-tax is available to lodge your return online.
