You can now check the progress of your tax return

Our Progress of return enquiry tool will give you the status of the income tax return you have lodged for the latest financial year (ending 30 June).

Albion, Australia (prHWY.com) November 1, 2012 - Our Progress of return enquiry tool will give you the status of the income tax return you have lodged for the latest financial year (ending 30 June).

The tool provides information about the tax returns of individuals only, not of companies, trusts or partnerships. It does not provide information about amendments to tax returns.

The service is free and available online 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Your search will take only a few minutes.

Conduct your search

Go to Progress of return and type in your tax file number (TFN).

You can find your TFN:

1) on your income tax notice of assessment
2) on correspondence we have sent to you
3) on your payment summary - for example, from your employer
4) through your tax agent.

Important changes for the 2012-13 financial year

From 1 July 2012, we will aim to finalise individual electronic current year tax returns within 12 business days of receipt. If we are unable to finalise your electronically lodged return within 30 calendar days of receipt, we will inform you by email, SMS, phone call, or letter. If we notify you by letter, it may take up to 36 days for you to receive the letter from when you lodged your tax return.
