Estimates, not advice
Every result on fairnetpay.com is an estimate. It is calculated from tax rates, thresholds and rules published by government agencies, applied to the figures you enter and to the assumptions stated on each page. It is general information, not tax, legal, payroll or financial advice.
Why your actual figure may differ
- Employers and payroll software round amounts per pay period and may use tax tables rather than formulas.
- Your tax code, withholding declaration, residency status or entitlement to offsets and credits may differ from what we assume.
- Bonuses, back pay, overtime, multiple jobs, investment income and benefits change the result.
- Rates can change during a tax year, and there can be a delay before the site reflects the change.
- Some rules are simplified. Each calculator lists the main simplifications in its notes.
Not an official site
FairNetPay is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the Australian Taxation Office, HM Revenue & Customs, the Canada Revenue Agency, Inland Revenue (New Zealand) or any other government body. Official names are used only to describe the rules a calculator applies and to link to sources.
Check before you act
Before making a decision — accepting a job offer, setting payroll, salary sacrificing, lodging a return or taking a redundancy package — confirm the figures with the relevant tax authority, your employer or payroll provider, or a registered tax professional.
