myGov / ATO Online Services: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how to use myGov and ATO online services to manage your tax returns, superannuation, and business obligations online.
This digital service provides a secure, centralized way for individuals to manage their tax-related tasks and information online.
Who it's for
This service is available to all Australian tax residents who hold a Tax File Number (TFN).
What you get
You gain access to a single portal where you can complete your tax returns, manage Business Activity Statements (BAS), and track your superannuation.
What it costs you
The service itself is free to use. However, you will need to spend about 15 minutes setting up a myGov account and linking it to your ATO account.
The catch to know
Simply having a myGov account is not enough to access your tax data. You must successfully link your ATO account to your myGov profile, which often requires using a linking code or completing an identity strength check.
How to apply
- Create a myGov account.
- Follow the prompts to link your ATO account.
- Complete any required identity checks to ensure your accounts are connected.
- Access your tax information through the official portal.
