Can you get an NZ tax refund?
 

Just a heads up folks - if you have been in NZ and paying tax but weren't working for the whole of the last tax year (for example, OH started working in Oct '06), check if you are able to claim back some tax contributions. According to hubby, we should get some dosh back from the IR!!! :eek:
Check out www.ird.govt.nz. Happy hunting!! :thumbup:

Simon, you can just show up at the IRD with your number and they'll just process everything for you if it's not necessary for you to find out immediately how much your refund will be. :thumbsup:
