Do I need to select the tax free bit also or leave this unchecked?

Thanks everyone, will get to budgeting now to see if we can take the position or not

Thank you.

trouble is, I have come across numerous calculators online and all seem to give me different answers so just wondered if on here there was maybe a financial expert who could help

Please, please, please, can someone help me???

My hubby has been offered a job with a salary package of $85,000 inclusive of superannuation. Can anyone tell me how much he will actually be paid each month (or annually as I'll just divide by 12) after the super goes out and tax?

We will be on a 457 visa and living in Brisbane.

thank you from a very confused person

Although not illegal, it is morally questionable, as those superann benefits would not be available to you and would considerably reduce (by 9%) your actual take home pay.

 

Good luck.

what do mean by the benefits would not be available? My hubby has been offered a job where the salary has been given as including superannuation so I assume this to mean each month the money would be deducted from his salary before we receive it. Can they not do this if you are on a 457? Sorry I'm very confused lol

Yeah they have worded it as salary including super, so added to the tax that you pay in Oz it takes up deductions to quite a high level.

guess we should shelve the dream for now then as this leaves us more out of pocket than staying where we are

thanks j

I can't really help but didn't want to read and run. Do the British thing and keep your chin up and like others have said, don't turn on each other as you need each other more than ever right now

Hi everyone, I'm wondering if anyone can help me understand something - sorry if it's in the wrong place.

My DH has just received his contract to sign regarding his job offer in Aus, detailing things such as salary, relocation, etc. However, it says that his salary is including superannuation, is this right should the company not be paying the superannuation? Sorry I'm very confused (it doesn't take much) and wondered if any of you might know.

thanks everyone

Hiya, yeah making the big move hopefully sooner rather than later. We're looking to be based in or around Brisbane. AD is ok but been here almost 6 years now and have to say the novelty is starting to wear off lol

My hubby is from Widnes. Hopefully we will be in or around a Brisbane in the early new year. Us northerners never go far before bumping into someone from home so who knows, depending where you are off to we might see you around lol

Hi everyone, just wanted to say a quick hello to you all :biggrin:
