More and more ATO advices


Recommended Posts

It would appear the ATO is widening its Info gathering sources to include Patreon, OnlyFans, Twitch etc for tax return crossmatching.

So, for those of you with side hustles, make sure you declare the income (and of course expenses).  They reckon lots of people have developed extra income sources during Lockdowns, so they want a piece of the action.

So, if you've got a nice income source from your OnlyFans page, beware 🙂

Only if your Webcam show is a registered business. That's what my accountant my friends accountant said... :ph34r:

There's a line between hobby and business. Hobby income and expenses are yours and don't need to be declared.

I suspect there'll be plenty of people in wanting it to be a business but very little actual sales that effectively make it a hobby. And then there's those people whose hobby has taken off big time and are making real income and that becomes an issue for the ATO, irrespective of whether the income goes in to an Aussie or overseas account.

Do wives , girlfriends , children fall under hobbies... they have serious expense levels and little income ...  I guess wives and girlfriends might fall under fringe benefits 

Girlfriends probably do, wives probably fall under liabilities.......  Just kidding 🙂
