Weird question, that I'm not too sure who to ask. But since I started this new job June 12th, do I need to lodge a tax return for that period of 18 days at my job?
I'll still need to do one since I worked at a convention last year, but just wondering what the procedure is regarding this new job...
If you were paid in that time, yep.
If you have new tax-deductable expenses in that time remember to include them either way.
Thought so. Only issue is that I'm being paid monthly and I should be paid today. So do I just calculate the pay from June 12th - June 30th?
Sorry for all the questions, I've only ever had to do this for when I worked the con and that was pretty easy.
Are you on a wage (employee), or a rolling contract (consultant)? If you're on a wage, then yes, you need to treat those days as being last financial year. If you're on a rolling contract, you treat the entire month as being in the financial year when the invoice is issued.
