Worksheet 1: Working out your sole and joint income

Last updated 28 August 2011

Worksheet 1 will help you to complete:

  • F item A3 by separating out joint income from solely earned income
  • G item A3 by separating employment or business income from non-employment or business income.

Step 1 Complete column (b) in worksheet 1 by transferring the appropriate amount from your 2011 tax return for the items listed in column (a).

Step 2 For each amount in column (b), write the amounts in columns (c), (d), (e) or (f).

Apportion each amount in column (b) into columns (c), (d), (e) and (f) depending on the source of that income. If the income came from:

  • a trust, show it in column (c)
  • you individually, show it in column (d)
  • a partnership, show it in column (d)
  • a joint income group, show it in column (e) or (f) as appropriate.

If you have more than three joint income groups, duplicate columns (e) and (f) on a separate sheet of paper.
