Buying, selling or swapping cryptocurrency in Australia? You could be triggering a tax event without ever withdrawing money into your bank account.

Many crypto investors don't realise that swapping tokens, receiving staking rewards or airdrops, and certain DeFi transactions can have tax consequences. Without proper records, you could end up paying more tax than necessary or facing unexpected ATO scrutiny.

In our latest video, Clear Tax Co-founder Yuvraj Verma explains the crypto tax rules Australian investors need to understand and the common mistakes to avoid.

Here's what we cover:

✅ Why crypto swaps can trigger capital gains tax
✅ How staking rewards and airdrops are taxed
✅ ATO crypto data matching and transaction tracking
✅ Cost base calculations across wallets and exchanges
✅ The 12-month CGT discount and why timing matters
✅ Three habits to help avoid costly crypto tax mistakes

Whether you're actively trading crypto, holding digital assets for the long term or earning rewards through staking, this video will help you better understand your Australian tax obligations.

Living in Australia as a US citizen? You could be paying tax in two countries without even realising where the problems start.

Many Americans assume the US-Australia tax treaty protects them from double taxation. But the IRS can still tax US citizens on their worldwide income, even while they're living in Australia.

In our latest video, Ash Jindal, Co-founder and Tax Accountant at Clear Tax, explains the tax rules US citizens and Green Card holders need to understand before moving to Australia or making major financial decisions here.

Here's what we cover:

✅ The US-Australia tax treaty and its savings clause
✅ Australian companies and family trust tax traps
✅ Superannuation and IRS reporting obligations
✅ Australian ETFs and PFIC tax rules
✅ Cost base differences and double taxation risks
✅ Pre-migration planning and Green Card exit tax

Whether you're an American already living in Australia or planning to relocate, understanding these rules early could help you avoid unexpected tax bills, reporting mistakes and costly penalties.

Your property is overseas. Your tax obligations might not be. 👀🌏
Selling a property outside Australia doesn't necessarily mean your profits are outside the Australian tax system.

Depending on your tax residency, capital gains tax rules and applicable tax treaties, you could still have tax obligations in Australia.
And these are things worth understanding before you sign that sale agreement.

Paying more tax than you need to? 👀

For property investors, the obvious deductions are only part of the picture. Depreciation and capital works could also make a difference to what you’re able to claim, depending on your property and eligibility.

The key is knowing what to look for before tax time arrives.
