Australian Taxation Office

Part of the Treasury portfolio and a Federal authority, also called ATO

Do not request personal information using this site. Why?

The Australian Taxation Office is the Federal Government's main revenue collection agency.

The ATO are the only federal authority that intentionally make it harder for people to access documents via Right to Know. They intentionally refuse to follow the Australian Government Style Manual by excessively using PDFs. They are also the only federal authority that force people to go to another website and search for their documents. We don't think that's good enough. You can find out more information on our blog.
