Accessing an employee's TFN declaration details

Accessing an employee's Tax File Number (TFN) Declaration details to view or download the information

As an admin in the platform, you have the ability to view and download an employee's latest TFN Declaration or view a history of changes that an employee has made on their TFN Declaration. 

Reasons you may want to do this would be

  • If an employee is being taxed incorrectly and you would like to check what options have been chosen, or 
  • If you would like to provide a copy of their TFN Declaration to an employee if they can't download this from the Employee App. 

If an employee requests that you update their Tax file Declaration, please note, that as this is an official ATO document, the employee must do this themselves. You can provide your employees with these instructions to assist them.

When an employee updates their personal details (name, date of birth, or address) on their tax file declaration form - it will automatically update in the relevant areas in the Employee profile within their Employee App and the admin portal.
