    Mar 15, 2026

    The Australian Government's Stage 3 tax cuts have reshaped every bracket. For someone earning $90,000, the change means an extra $1,179 per year in your pocket. In this article, we break down the new brackets, show before-and-after comparisons at key salary levels, and explain what this means for your superannuation contributions.

    The key changes include a reduction in the 32.5% rate to 30%, applying to incomes between $45,001 and $135,000. The 37% bracket has been adjusted upward, and the top 45% rate now only kicks in at $190,001.
