If you earn between $24,000 and $48,000 a year and don’t currently receive Working for Families, Tax Credits, a benefit, NZ Super or a Veteran’s pension, then you could be eligable for the new independent earner tax credit.
Receiving your $10 a week could be as simple as changing your tax code to ME (or ME SL for people with a student loan).
Ask your Payroll Professional if you are unsure if you qualify, or check out the IRD website.
