Our support options
If you've been affected by a flood and are struggling to meet your tax, registry or super obligations, we can provide a range of support options to help you.
We encourage you to contact us about your situation as soon as you can.
We can also provide replacements for lost or damaged tax records.
Managing after a natural disaster
There is a lot to manage when recovering from a natural disaster. We have detailed information on:
- how to report insurance payouts
- how selling vacated land or a rebuilt house affects capital gains tax
- deductions and tax implications for repairing rental properties or businesses
- receiving and reporting disaster support payments or grants
- eligibility for fuel tax credits
- organising donations or fundraising events or giving donations.
For more information, see Recovery following natural disasters.
Recovery assistance
If you have been affected by floods, you may be eligible to receive payments or allowances to help you recover. See Disaster support from other agencies.
If you've received financial help, you may need to include information about it in your tax return. See Reporting disaster payments and grants in your tax return.
