How It Works

MyTax.co.nz is an IRD-approved tax agent. This means that if you’ve earned wages or a salary in New Zealand at any time in the last 5 years, we are able to check if you are owed a tax refund using our accounting systems which are linked to the IRD. Many thousands of New Zealanders overpay tax every year – it’s our job to get it back for you!

Step One

You fill out our application form with some basic information, which should take less than 5 minutes.

You will need to have your IRD number handy and some details regarding your income and work.

Step Two

We receive your application for a tax refund, link you to our tax agency and calculate whether you have any tax refunds owed to you over the past 5 years.

If we find you have tax to pay in any year we won’t send that tax return to the IRD. You will never have to pay tax with MyTax.co.nz.

Step Three

We prepare and file your tax returns with the Inland Revenue Department, only for the years you are owed a refund.

And remember, if you’re not owed a refund, we don’t charge you a fee!

Step Four

The IRD pay your refund into our trust account. We check your refund, complete the required paperwork and send you your refund by cheque or direct credit, less our fee. You also collect Fly Buys points on your fee.

The whole process is fast, simple, and designed to be stress free for you.

With many thousands of unpaid tax dollars sitting with the IRD, waiting to be claimed, why wait any longer?

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take to get my tax refund?
We aim to let you know your tax refund result within 1 business day and have it paid to you in around 5 days.

When is the best time to apply to see if I’m eligible for a tax refund?
Now! The sooner the better. We can only check the last 5 years. If you wait until after 31 March you will lose the earliest year’s refund.

Could I have to pay tax?
No. With MyTax.co.nz you won’t be assessed for tax to pay as we only file for a tax assessment if a tax refund is due.

Will I be reassessed every year?
No. MyTax will assess clients for the last five financial years. We will not automatically reassess future years. Further assessment will require a new application.
