Tax file number? (1 Viewer)

[Arv21]

I don't have a TFN yet. I applied for it two weeks ago and it has yet to arrive. Will this be a problem when I go to enroll on the 24th?

most prob yes, i was in the same case when looking for employment, you have to go to the nearest ato and get it yourself or fill in one there physically, mine was delayed for months until i went to ato and got it back in a few weeks.

I was in the same situation you are in when I enrolled.

You can apply for HECS-HELP as per normal but you need to give the Student Centre your TFN before the census date.

Should be okay.

You don't need your TFN to enrol yourself into the system. You have until March 14th if I recall correctly to enter and finalise all your details, including TFN.

You can use your certificate of application for TFN.

Is that those sheets you show them when you apply for the TFN?

IIRC, when you apply for a TFN they give you a proof of application which is valid during the period from application to receiving the TFN.
