Yes, as a foreign resident in Australia, you are required to file a tax return if you earn income that is taxable in Australia, even if your stay is less than a month. Since you mentioned that you need to file because of visa conditions, it is important to comply with those requirements.
To file your taxes with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), you can do so online through their website or by using a registered tax agent. You’ll need to provide details about your income earned in Australia, as well as any applicable deductions.
Be sure to check the ATO’s guidelines specific to foreign residents, as there may be different rules regarding what income is considered taxable. If you’re unsure, it might be helpful to consult with a tax professional for assistance tailored to your situation.
