The Australian Government has made changes to individual income tax rates and thresholds. This will apply to all taxable income you earn from 1 July 2024. The changes will not impact your 2023–24 tax return.
From 1 July this year, these changes will:
• reduce the 19 per cent tax rate to 16 per cent
• reduce the 32.5 per cent tax rate to 30 per cent
• increase the 37 per cent tax threshold from $120,000 to $135,000
• increase the 45 per cent tax threshold from $180,000 to $190,000.
These changes will deliver a tax cut to every Australian taxpayer.
