Australian University Loan Repayments

Repayments for Students Loans were set to commence once the Student was working and earning $55,000 per year.

The 2017 Budget is set to change this threshold down to $42,000, from July 2018.

Repayments will begin at a rate of 1% on an income of $42,000 and rising to a rate of 10% once the wages reach $119,882 per year.
The ATO will calculate the compulsory repayment for the year and include it on the income tax notice of assessment.
