More than one million Australians are managing their tax through the convenience of myGov.

myGov links people directly to a range of Government services using a single username and password, making it even easier for people to lodge their income tax returns online.

In the past four weeks, more than one million people have already lodged their tax return using eTax and the new myTax, which is conveniently linked from myGov.

Since the start of the new financial year, there has also been an average of 40,000 Australians are creating their new myGov account every day.

Through myGov, people can link their online accounts for Medicare, Centrelink, Child Support, the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the Personally Controlled e-Health Record System and the Australian Taxation Office.

Information about myGov can be found online at my.gov.au and details on eTax and myTax at ato.gov.au
