Anyone good with tax?

 Tue 26 Jul 2011 09:15:23 PM
Hi all. Doing my tax and for the first time ever I need to take into account the small amount of shares my company gave me. Now the shares where free and part of the Employee share scheme and I can see where I put that info in via etax but the part im confused on is where to put the info on the two small dividend payments I got. Is it the section in Etax before section 12 which is where I placed the info on the Employee share scheme? Thanks.

Not sure, but these may help if you've not already seen it?

11 - Dividends

12 - Employee share schemes

I have similar hassles related to travel allowances I'm paid, and whether they are under the "reasonable" amount set out by the ATO. Sometimes I can claim, sometimes I can't, sometimes I need receipts, sometimes I don't. lol.
