If you live and work in a regional and remote location in Australia, you may be able to take advantage of remote area salary packaging to increase your take-home pay.
By using your pre-tax salary to cover eligible expenses such as rental costs, mortgage interest, or residential utilities, you could enjoy significant tax savings while reducing your overall annual living expenses limit.
Remote area benefits are designed to reward those living away from the nearest capital city, making it easier to manage your primary residence expenses, or your lease agreement. Speak with your employer or seek independent financial advice to determine your eligibility criteria and discover how much you could save.
