Based on the fact you will be in Oz for the majority of the year you would most likely be tax resident and pay the same income tax as everyone else. A simple online calculator suggests 21k would be taxed out of 90k - however there are other levies such as Medicaid that will also be charged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A simple online calculator suggests 21k would be taxed out of 90k - however there are other levies such as Medicaid that will also be charged You also have to factor in the fact that you fall into 2 different tax years (before and after 30th June). The tax free threshold is pro-rated so you'll only get the proportion that relates to May and June in the first year but the other tax thresholds are not prorated so the highest rate you'll pay before 30th June is only going to be 19% (there's medicare levy on top of that unless you're not eligible for medicare). Note that your employer may withhold more but you'll get it back at the end of the year from the ATO. Luckily for you, you should be taxed as a (temporary) Australian resident. You'll pay the same tax in Australia as any other Australian Resident (i.e. someone with citizenship or PR) but will be exempt from Australian tax on your foreign income.
