Attributed personal services income

How to report attributed personal services income when you lodge your return using myTax.

Last updated 26 May 2016

We have pre-filled your tax return with payment summary information provided to us. Check for attributed personal services income you received that is not pre-filled and ensure you add it.

You must complete this section if you provided personal services and you:

  • received a PAYG payment summary - business and personal services income showing an X against 'Personal services attributed income', or
  • had personal services income attributed to you.

If you received personal services income as a sole trader, do not complete this section. You must show this income at Personal services income in the Business/sole trader, partnership and trust income (including loss details) section. If you can't see it, go to the Personalise return screen and select the following:

  • 'You were a sole trader or had business income or losses, partnerships or trust distributions (not from a managed fund)'
    • 'Business/Sole trader income or loss'
      • 'Personal services income'.

For more information about personal services income and when it may be attributed to you, see Personal services income (PSI)

Completing this section

You will need:

  • your PAYG payment summary - business and personal services income
  • details of any other personal services income attributed to you.

If you do not have all of your documents, contact the person who paid you.

  1. For each payment summary that has not been pre-filled in your tax return, select Add and enter information into the corresponding fields.
  2. Select Save.
  3. Select Save and continue.
