If you’ve been affected by the extreme weather, you don’t need to contact IR right now. If you let them know when you reasonably can, there are ways they can help, including things like removing penalties and interest, getting you set up to pay in instalments, and helping if you are in financial hardship.
Contacting IR
IR is prioritising contacts from those affected by the floods and cyclone. If you need to talk to them:
- Send IR a message in myIR using the word ‘flood’ in the subject line: myIR login
- Call its dedicated phoneline: 0800 473 566
- Go to one of their front of house offices: IR customer sites
You can also get in contact with a tax agent for professional advice.
