OB 28: ICA payment of amount of tax for schedular payment

You could also call this:

“Credit for tax deducted from contractor payments to Australian companies with NZ imputation accounts”

If you’re an Australian company with an imputation credit account (ICA) in New Zealand, you can get an imputation credit when you’re paid as a non-resident contractor. The credit is equal to the amount of tax that’s taken out of your payment.

This credit is listed in a special table called ‘table O1: imputation credits’. You can find it in row 26, which is labelled ‘amount of tax for schedular payment’.

The date of the credit is the same day that the tax is taken out of your payment.
