Tax Return



So I finally stopped procrastinating and met with my accountant today to do my tax return for last financial year.

As expected, I have to pay back a whooping sum of money out of my very own pocket on top of what's already been taken out of my wages. *Rolls eyes*

Can't say I'm too pleased about that, but I guess it's something that we all have to live with. Oh well, what are you gonna do huh? *Shrugs*

To add insult to injury, I found out that I'm not eligible for the tax bonus payment from Rudd.

The one time, the ONE time, that Oz government is giving back something for the hefty amount of tax I have to pay every year, I'm not eligible!

What, now we're being punished for working too hard and making too much money?! Pfftt!

Well, I guess it's unfair for me to take it out on Ruddy boy because, let's face it, it's really not his fault. It's just my luck.

My bloody no-luck with money!

Now that I haven't worked and practically didn't make a dime for this financial year, I highly doubt there will be another giveaway this time round.

Seriously! It's just my LUCK.

And I'm getting really tired of it.

Didn't your accountant teach you tricks and ways to lower your tax? or is that the best he/she can do?

Foongpc: I guess that's the best anyone can do, within the legal means. So no, no tricks for me. :)

Fuzkittie: You can say that again! :|

Sdovelly: Actually, I think it's a little bit more than that? But since I'm not eligible anyway, I didn't bother to find out the exact figure. Why rub salt into the wound ey? :/
