Category 2: Foreign resident

Check if you can claim an exemption in the Foreign resident category.

Last updated 25 June 2019

If you were a foreign resident for tax purposes for the whole of 2018–19, you can claim a full exemption (365 days).

If you were a foreign resident for only a period in 2018–19, you can claim a full exemption for that period if:

  • you did not have any dependants for that period, or
  • all your dependants were in an exemption category for that period.
