Chants, HECS rates:

https://www.ato.gov.au/rates/help-repayment-thresholds-and-rates/

If you're below the threshold you WON'T have to pay any. If you do b*tch and complain, or get a better accountant.

she cannot do much about it Smartie.

although the employer should have had withheld the correct amount of PAYG W it wasn't

this means Chants received more cash in hand during the course of the income year

having a HECS/HELP debt at does not help her situation - although should she only have an ATI < $51,309 then that will then mitigate any HELP repayments for last FY

All I can say for you peeps is to check and double or even triple check your weekly / monthly payslips to ensure the correct amounts are being calculated

Oh... cock.

Didn't know it wasn't a progressive rate.

If you earn just above the threshold you pay 4% of your total income. if you earn just under the threshold, nothing. I guess i'll be paying off my HECS in only a few years.

Oh, i didn't realize it was a progressive rate, thought it was just 8% flat on anything above 53K.

its never been a flat rate Pete

It's always being scaled ATI (equivalent) thresholds

same! I was up at 3:15 and couldn't fall back to sleep

Shoulda told me I could have a sleepless buddy to chat with

Feel sooooo much like crap though :(

Had I known that I would have informed you lol!

Yep it's a b*tch if you're not ready for it. But if your employer is correctly taking out the HECS amount from your pay, it won't be a big problem and you will smash your HECS debt in a few years, which is great. That's what I did, although the first year my employer did not take out the correct amount so I got a massive bill :(.

She's saying she earnt ~50k but is having to pay 2.2k HECS. Which is wrong. Regardless of what her employer has taken out, she should not have to pay ANY hecs back on 50k.

The other problem of her employer not taking enough out, yeah nothing she can do about that. But you can apply to the ATO to pay it off over time rather than have to front up the full amount straight away.

The rates scale, but the payment is not progressive. Eg as per the example from the ATO's site.

"Example: HELP compulsory repayment

Mitchell’s repayment income for the 2013–14 income year was $54,915, and the repayment rate for repayment income from $51,309–$57,153 was 4.0%. Mitchell’s compulsory repayment was $54,915 × 4.0% = $2,196.60"

In other words, if you earn 100K flat minus writeoffs etc, you will pay $8000 in HECS

Yeah, they have. They left 16K of my income out, which means i'd theoretically owe 2K less which explains why its so messed up and why the tax calculator wanted to give me a 7K refund.

However as per the example above, if Chants has earnt over $51309 she will owe minimum 2K. so if you earn 51K on your job they have no need to take out HECS, you earn a few hundred bucks somewhere else all of a sudden your tax bill jumps by 2K. In this case i'd be seeing a good accountant and trying to get your taxable income under $51309.

That depends on what Chants HRI is Smartie - if only just $50K salary alone and nothing else then I agree.

But there is not enough information here to determine that FTM and perphaps Chants wants to keep that information to herself (which is all completely understandable :) )

Pete you really need to work on your clarity brah

Oh its a poor people thing, like not having cars ect? *end Joe Hockey impersonation*

Yep exactly the same. Us poor people man, we're just taking up space.

I think I need a bloody good account. 50k was combined from wages and family tax :/ I think Payroll has screwed my ass to a poll with this one.

Chants did you have the same problem the year before and was the level of income (in totality) similar?

Despite my no HECS i still get molested by the ATO every year anyway so I feel your pain.

thats because you have positive passive income which is not taxed or only partially imputated

I'd say you'd be doing rather well IMO :D

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
