What’s new on the Etax 2024 tax return?

Last year, we asked thousands of Etax users for feedback and suggestions. Then we got straight to work on the 2024 tax return. Here are some past suggestions from Etax users that are ready to use now:


The ATO has made home office expenses so confusing, with new changes and different rules about keeping records. Can you make this easier?

Done.
Work-from-home expenses is an important tax deduction that a LOT of people are eligible to claim. However, this can get very complicated if you talk to the ATO about it. At Etax, our system will make home office claims simple for you.

Here’s what’s new for you in the Home Office Expenses section:

We’ve included all of the ATO’s new changes to home office tax deductions in the Etax tax return this year. With simple questions that help you provide the right information and avoid ATO troubles. You can read our blog for more information about claiming home office expenses on your 2024 tax return here.


Show me my Income Statement so I don’t have to use MyGov, or the ATO to find my income details

Done.
You can find your income statements, from all employers, at the Income Statement page in the menu, when you log into your Etax account.


Give me more deduction ideas based on my job” or “show me what deductions other people claim

Tax deductions section in the Etax tax return

No problem.
First, carefully select your occupation from the Occupation Selector in the first part of your Etax return.

When you get to the deductions section, your tax return will show you the most common tax deductions for people with a jobs like yours. This helps you remember valuable claims that can boost your refund. Job-based deduction tips is improved for 2024.

I have things left over

That’s a common problem, solved!
Down at the very bottom of your Etax return, there’s a new section called “Any other questions”. You can tell us about anything here and attach any documents or receipts you’re not sure about or just don’t know where to put. Your accountant will check it over and get back to you. If needed they’ll update your return too.
