There are low income and other full or partial Medicare exemptions available. A Medicare Levy Surcharge may also be applicable and is applied on a progressive basis if eligible private health insurance cover is not maintained.

Entitlement to the low and middle income tax offset

Under Budget 2018 proposals a new low income offset of up to $645 was to replace LITO and LMITO. Subsequent measures in 2019 and 2020 increased the value to $700 and brought it forward to apply from the 2021 year. See details here.

* Calculator Notes: Calculations are estimates based on currently legislated tax rates applying to a future period and could change before then in accordance with changes in government policy. Rounding errors may be present in the calculated results. Medicare: For the purposes of estimation the calculator assumes a Medicare exemption up to the single income earner level for 2022-23 which is $24,276. The Medicare percentage selection box is included should you wish to adjust the calculated Medicare percentage at higher levels of income. The current Medicare income exemption levels can be reviewed here. LITO: The full value of LITO on lower levels of income is $700, however it is not refundable, and so the actual credit is limited to the amount of tax payable on lower levels of income. See LITO info here.
