请问我有必要去搞个ABN么

pal2002

主要是最近可能能有那种单干casual的工，细节没确定，想问问是不是搞个ABN能省点钱。
另外我同时还得找工作，所以想问问，如果找到permant的工，这个ABN该如何处理？好像contract的工得有自己的ABN吧？
还有我现在申请的话，我3月份来的时候付的120笔记本税能不能claim回来啊？
知道的朋友麻烦指导一下，加分答谢。

还有ABN申请了不用有没有负面作用啊？还是要去取消？

If you work as a contractor, definitely you will need an ABN. The application for it is easy and may take up to 4 weeks, if I remember correctly.

I don't remember ABN necessarily has direct impact on your tax claim. I have my ABN for 6 years and has not used it that much. It did not cause much trouble with my tax claim either.

You can keep the ABN as long as you like and I don't see any negative impact from keeping it, as far as I know.

To sum up, if you are going to work as a contractor along the road, go for it. It does not have negative impact so far as I know.

Hope it helps a tiny bit.   

Good luck.

you can apply an ABN online if you have a tax file number.
If you apply a sole trader, the ABN is connected with your TFN. As the above mentioned, it does not cause much trouble for you to report your tax even you have a permanent job. you can have both of them.

还有我 ...

Yes, you can claim the tax back if you use that for your work, you also can calim part of the cost of your laptop as expense for you to earn the income, depaends on how many percentage you use your computer to do your work, just be reasonable. (as long as you have the tax invoice when you bought it with you ). so it's good for your to have an ABN, you even can calim the transport cost as the expense.

谢谢楼上几位，等我分恢复了再加。
还有一个问题请请教：如果我现在申请，还来得急么？因为这些笔记本的税发生在以前，而且现在申请ABN估计6.30前是下不来了

现在申请应该还来得及。网上申请成功就有号了。一般10天左右信件/光盘寄到家。

什么是ABN？

申请ABN 就差不多是开个小公司的意思

就是solo trader啦，反正说申请了反正不会带来麻烦，就先申请罗

ABN的税是否可以少交一点呢？我觉得好象是自觉的交一样。
如果我交的税不能退多少，我还不如平时少交点税呢！
