How to start as Self Employed in Australia?
Hi
When we arrive my husband will be self employed (freelance writing for car magazines from home). I have been reading through the various posts on ABNs etc but am now thoroughly confused!
Can someone help me out by posting either a link, or just a list, of exactly what he has to do so he can start work when we get to Perth? He won't have any employees or anything complicated, and won't be earning enough for compulsory GST registration.
I guess he needs a TFN, but what else does he need to do?
Thanks for any advice!
