How do most Australians do their tax return?

The ATO confirms that most taxpayers prefer to use a tax agent like Etax to lodge their tax return. The majority of tax returns are done this way.

This is in spite of ATO marketing and media suggesting we should do it ourselves with ATO MyGov and myTax.

Why doesn’t everyone go it alone with myTax? Because most people choose to get tax help from someone who’s on their side.

Most Australians use a tax agent like Etax

You can get the confidence of tax agent support and checking, with online convenience, at Etax – the leading online tax experts in Australia. Plus, the low “once-per-year” fee is also tax deductible!
