    Australian tax return for UK Tier 5 contractors

    I'm on a 2 year Tier 5 youth mobility visa from AUS currently contracting over here in the UK.
    Any Aussies here that could give me some tips on how you do your taxes?
    I've done a bit of reading and all seem to say I have to declare my earnings in the UK in my Australian tax return - is this true?

    If so, does this include all of my personal account income? ie. Salary/Dividend i pay myself from my limited company? or do I have to include all that's in my business account?

    So there's this double-tax treaty between UK/AUS... Do I do tax return on both countries?

    Any feedback would be appreciated!

    Are there no ex pat forums you could check? Must be easy enough to get an answer on them or even google?

      And what a surprise. I search tier 5 Australia tax and there is an ex pat forum where this has been answered a number times as well as all the other results.

        I think its great that this site has a built in 'real person' search engine. It's the personnel touch that brings repeat business!
