Off to the beach now for beers in the winter sun.....:D
my company & personal tax returns for the last 3 years are up to date. it cost a bomb, and i'm pretty sure my accountant is an asshole, but i might even get a refund and i will not be jailed for tax evasion or harassed by ASIC for irresponsible record keeping. all i can say is keep stuff, and actually read mail, people. i had to pay a indian guy 300$ to make up 12 sets of bas statements out of a pile of piss-stained invoices, businesses cards, IOU notes, blood oaths, cash receipts and long-closed bank statements. worth it but fuck
For the first time since moving to Melbourne, i'm working in a role that i love. My boss is a star, I think my head is getting visibly bigger with everything i'm learning, and i have a heap of responsibility, which is really good. I"m really glad i've finally got a manager that believes in the value of positive feedback.
I am feeling really settled now - and being a creature of habit and routine, this is just awesome.
^ Will your tax be complicated? I did four years worth of my own last year but I don't have a business or investments so it was really easy.
i'm not sure if it will be easy or not.....
I went nearly 1.5 years without having a job or being supported by the govt so i'm not sure how easy that is to explain to the tax dept, or whether they'd even care.
