Guest Penfold Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hi I am new to this site, and was hoping someone could give me some advice on Tax File Numbers. I have noticed that most people have jobs lined up before leaving for OZ. I have been told that I can't get a TFN while still here in the Uk, and when I do apply it will take about 28 days to come through!

Guest Amanda Cook Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Hi Ian. Check out this government website re tax file numbers: http://www.ato.gov.au/youth/content.asp?doc=/content/40962.htm&mnu=11648&mfp=001/013 I can't honestly remember how long mine took to come through but I'm sure it wouldn't be as long as 28 days....?? All the best, Amanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Penfold Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Hi Amanda Thanks for your reply, i visited the link you sent me, having read the text it seems i am unable to apply without being in Australia:(. It's frustrating as i am coming on a spouse visa and would like to work asap. Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest emi-great Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Hi It rarely takes more than a few days for your Tax File Number to arrive so I wouldnt envisage you having to wait long. You can probably apply for jobs prior to it arriving so long as you have confirmation that you have applied for it.
