Douglas Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Would my TFN from a working holiday in '91 still be viable for my recently validated PR? Note I never worked back in '91, but just registered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Thanks, I thought cos it was during a temporary WHV it would change when I became a permanent resident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Yes, Hubbys was still valid from yearsss ago,, we didnt realise and applied when we moved here but they rang explaining he already had one and gave him the number over the phone. Might be worth calling them and seeing if they will give it you over the phone once your here, would save time and paperwork,lol Cal x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest melanie79 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 i looked into that myself. yeah the tfn is still the same. i couldnt find mine from when i was there on a working holiday visa in 2004, so rang my old employer who told me my tfn & that it will always remain the same.

Douglas Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Thanks all. I still have my number. I may try the online tax site to see if they still have it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candygirl Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 We have not kept a note of ours as it was so long ago that we had them. How do you find out what they are. I am hoping this is one thing to cross off the list (if we get there!). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phone the tax office, they will normally tell you over the phone, and confirm by letter, That is what my wife did when she returned. :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candygirl Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 That's sounds simple enough. Thanks very much for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
