Tax Help is a free service offered by a network of Tax Office-trained community volunteers. Tax Help is aimed at people who have simple tax returns (that is, salary and wages, bank interest, Centrelink payments and dividends) who meet an income test.
Registered tax agents and some financial planners can provide advice on taxation matters (for a fee). You need to ensure the financial planner is able to give tax advice. Do not use an unregistered tax agent.
