Income Tax Act 2007

Income - Excluded income - Introductory provisions

CX 4: Relationship with assessable income

You could also call this:

“How job benefits relate to your taxable income”

When your employer gives you something good because of your job, it’s usually called a benefit. Sometimes, this benefit might be counted as part of your income that can be taxed. If it is counted as part of your taxable income, then it’s not called a fringe benefit. This rule helps to make sure that the same benefit isn’t taxed twice.
