If you’re not eligible for Medicare benefits for all or part of the financial year, you may be able to claim a Medicare levy exemption on your tax return.

This means you might be exempt from paying the 2% Medicare levy.

You can claim an exemption if:

✅ you have applied for and received a Medicare Entitlement Statement (MES) from Services Australia
✅ all your dependents (including your spouse) are also exempt. This means your spouse may also need to apply for their own MES.

⏰ It can take up to 8 WEEKS, so apply from 1 July! No MES = no exemption.
