This TaxRates.txt contains Australian FY25 ATO and New Zealand FY25 NZ IRD Tax Rates.

February 2025 WHM Update

      (File updated - 21 February 2025)
  1. An issue in the 2024 Australian Tax Rates file, TaxRates.txt which results in incorrect tax being calculated for Working Holiday Makers at a Registered Employer has been fixed.  The nature of the tax tables provided by the ATO and how the thresholds work with annual figures rather than per pay, means that Synergetic is unable to properly calculate the applicable tax per each pay for WHM staff, especially when they are or have moved to the next tax threshold.  The fix was to zero out the Tax Scale HRXX, and for Pay Officers to manually calculate the HRXX tax amount for each pay and add the amount to be taxed as a manual pay line.  More detail on WHM Tax is available from the ATO at:


Please Download the updated TaxRates.txt below, and upload to your Synergetic instance.
