Try the free extra income calculatorTaxAhead's estimate for 30 June
Overtime, a pay rise, a bonus, a second job or a side business: part of any extra money goes to tax. Pick the type, enter your usual yearly income and the extra amount, and see how much ends up in your pocket.
Your pay for the year, including leave, minus salary packaging and work deductions. Not sure? Use your yearly pay before tax.
From $1,000 of overtime, you keep
2026–27 tax rates for Australian residents, the low income tax offset, the 2% Medicare levy, the Medicare levy surcharge for singles, and compulsory HELP repayments.
Salary packaging and fringe benefits, family and couple thresholds, rental or investment income, and the Medicare exemption for work visa holders. The TaxAhead app includes all of these, worked out from your own payslips.
Illustration only. Your own result depends on your situation. Not tax advice.
If your income moves with nights, weekends, overtime or a second job, the tax taken out each pay is a guess. TaxAhead keeps a running total so the guess doesn't become a surprise.
What you'll be able to do when your account opens. Start with one payslip and add the rest as the year goes.
A few minutes the first time, then a minute each payday.
TaxAhead reads it and sets up your employer for you.
Hospital cover, HELP debt, salary packaging, any rentals or side business.
Your projected refund or bill, updated every time you add a payslip.
Put money aside, check your cover, or see what extra shifts are worth while there's still time.

Locked in for life, for our first members
Payslips are personal. We treat them that way.
Your records are kept in a Sydney data centre and each account can only ever see its own data.
We don't sell your data or pass it to advertisers. We never ask for your tax file number or bank logins.
One button removes all your records and receipts, permanently.
No. TaxAhead gives general information and estimates based on the figures you enter and current Australian tax rates. It doesn't tell you what to claim. For advice about your situation, speak with a registered tax agent.
No. TaxAhead works from your payslips, plus anything you choose to add such as receipts or rental statements.
No. You lodge yourself in myTax, or through a registered tax agent. TaxAhead's summary lays your figures out in the order myTax asks for them.
Yes, if you're an Australian resident for tax purposes, as most people on skilled work visas are. Many work visa holders aren't entitled to Medicare, and TaxAhead can include the Medicare levy exemption if you have a Medicare Entitlement Statement. Working holiday makers and non-residents are taxed differently and aren't covered yet.
It will answer questions about your own figures in plain English, like "why has my estimate changed?" or "what happens if I pick up two extra shifts?". It explains your numbers. It won't tell you what to claim, and it isn't tax advice.
