The current Australian tax free threshold (2015-16 Financial Year) for Australian individual residents is $18,200. This means that if you taxable income (usually how much money you’ve made) is $18,200 or less, the tax rate is 0%. So you don’t have to pay any tax on any amounts up to the tax free threshold.

Since and including the financial year ended 30 June 2013, the tax free threshold has been at $18,200. From the financial years from 1 July 2000 to 30 June 2012, it was $6,000.
