Hi,
I really need your help and advice concerning salary packaging.
I am due to start a contract job in the next couple of days and they have asked me what salary packaging company I work with- I don't even know what that is.
They also do not want to direct me to one due to conflicts of interest. But I am concerned with making poor choices if I go out an find one on my own without understanding what they are, how they make money off me, and what benefits I can get from the arrangement. Therefore I am hoping people here might please be able to help me!
I have been able to determine that salary packaging will save me money on my taxes, but I still don't know how to find the best company or if companies differ in what they offer. I am most interested in getting tax cuts for living expenses, since I do not need a car and already have a laptop, for my medical cover.
Please help! Thank you!
Sincerely, Erin
