now .. did you work in one specific area for 3 months or more?
if so then, you are a resident for tax purposes and with that you get an allowance of 6,000 tax free .. which would mean you are entitled to 1.5k back

Quote:
Generally, you are an Australian resident for tax purposes if you have:

* always lived in Australia
* moved to Australia and live here permanently
* been in Australia continuously for six months or more and for most of the time you have been
o in the one job and
o living in the same place, or
* been in Australia for more than half of the financial year, unless
o your usual home is overseas, and
o you do not intend to live in Australia.

also 2007-2008 the % rate was 29% for non-resident for tax purposes
which is correct.
