How can you expect a $900 "tax break" if you paid no tax?
Most farmers arent getting it as they are classed as self-employed, once they pay for everything they are under the tax-free threshold and therefore pay no tax..

I feel good about myself as far as tax is concerned nowadays, I done 9 years worth of returns 3 years ago and now have it done by July each year.

Most people I know who got their tax done through an accountant/tax officer have recieved theirs. Me, my missus and my parents do ours thru the internet and still waiting. Maybe thats the pecking order as it doesn't seem to be postcode or when you lodged, as I also lodged within the first few weeks of tax season.

Oh well May 16 they say, some of us have to be last I suppose :roll:

Mrs ZZ and I got ours a few weeks ago - hello new taps!
(Oh, and I can justify that wii purchase now too - sort of. At least my kids can enjoy it before it sinks in that they'll be paying off the stimulus debt well into their adulthood. Cheers kids!)

Given the soul purpose is to stimulate the economy, I would have thought it a bit rough if you've paid tax for X amount of years, bar one, and missed out on such an unusual payment?

In case any of you guys were staying awake at night wandering what's happened to my cheque, you can rest easy now 'cause I got mine yesterday. :D

So the cheques are being sent in some sort of order according to your postcode, is that right? Any particular order for electronic deposits?? I initially thought it was to do with the time at which you lodged your tax return last year, but giving I lodged mine in late Aug I thought I would have mine already!! K Rudd giving me donuts....

The Tax office has a random post code number generator to ensure the money is sent out evenly across the globe.
