Tax and Pension Advertisers

When you are living overseas you will pay tax and pension contributions to the government in which you are in residence. Often at the end of your working holiday visa you will have the opportunity to refund of money back from the government. This could be for the following reasons:

• You have been taxed under the wrong tax code
• You finish your employment before the end of a financial year.
• Your work may be claimed under needs for a community and therefore tax free.
• Your earnings during the year were less than the tax threshold for that country

Each country is different so it is worth speaking to professionals to see what you may or may not be entitled to on a refund.

Below are some companies which specialise in working holiday maker’s tax refunds.
