ALITAX · Bilal Jivraj — Registered Tax Agent 25287564. Original guidance from 10+ years of DASP and tax casework.

Welcome. If you worked in Australia on a temporary visa, there is a very good chance you left money behind — and this guide exists to help you get it back.

▶️ 60 seconds: is some of that $21 billion yours?
🔁 Already claimed? Recheck whether everything was claimed properly — you may still be owed more.

My name is Bilal Jivraj. I am a Registered Tax Agent and the Director of ALITAX, and I have been helping people claim their Australian superannuation and tax refunds for more than ten years.

In that time I have seen the same thing happen again and again. Someone finishes their season, or finishes their studies, or their visa ends — and they fly home believing everything is finished. It usually is not. Their superannuation is still sitting in an Australian fund. Their final tax return was never lodged. A Medicare exemption they were entitled to was never claimed. Sometimes their employer never paid the right amount of super in the first place.

Most of them never find out. Not because they were careless — but because nobody ever explained it to them.

That is why I wrote this guide
Every chapter here comes from real cases: the rejected certifications, the mismatched names, the refunds stuck at the ATO, the workers who were owed thousands and never knew. I have written down what I would tell you if you were sitting across from me.

What you will find in this guide

  • Whether you can claim — and what you may be owed in both super and tax
  • Exactly how we work — every step, with our real documents shown to you
  • What to do before you leave Australia, and what to do once you have gone
  • Chapters for your situation — PALM scheme, working holiday, student, graduate, sponsored
  • The mistakes that cost people money, and how to avoid them
  • Real cases we have solved, so you can judge us on results rather than promises

My promise to you

You do not have to use ALITAX to benefit from this guide. Read it, learn from it, and if you decide to claim on your own or through another agent, I am glad you know what you are entitled to.

If you would like our help, the first step costs you nothing. At ALITAX we will check your super and your tax, and send you a free written estimate — what you are owed, what our fee would be, and what would reach your account. No obligation. You can take that estimate to any other agent and compare it.

A word about trust
You are in a vulnerable position when you leave Australia — often far from home, sometimes with limited English, and unsure who to trust with your Tax File Number and your savings. That is exactly why this guide shows you our whole process, our real documents and our actual fees before you commit to anything. Please read the chapter on protecting your TFN, and never share your details with anyone who cannot prove they are a registered tax agent.

How to use this guide

You do not need to read it end to end. Use the contents page to find your situation — your visa, your country, your question — or use the search box. Each chapter stands on its own.

If you are still in Australia, start with Departing Australia. If you have already left, start with Eligibility. If you came through the PALM scheme, go straight to the PALM Workers chapter.

Whatever you do — please do not leave your money in Australia. It is yours. You earned it.

Hello. My name is Bilal Jivraj.

I am a Registered Tax Agent, and I run a practice called ALITAX here in Australia.

For more than ten years, I have helped people who worked in Australia on temporary visas claim back two things: their superannuation, and their tax refund.

And in that time, I have seen the same story over and over.

Someone finishes their work, or finishes their studies, and they fly home — thinking everything is done.

But it usually is not.

Their super is still sitting in an Australian fund. Their final tax return was never lodged. And very often, they were entitled to a Medicare exemption that nobody ever told them about.

Sometimes their employer never even paid the right amount of super.

Most people never find out. Not because they were careless — but because nobody explained it to them.

So I wrote this guide.

It explains everything: whether you can claim, what you might be owed, what to do before you leave, and what to do once you have gone home.

And here is my promise to you.

You do not have to use my company to benefit from this. Read it. Learn from it. If you claim on your own, I am glad you know what you are owed.

But if you would like our help — the first step costs you nothing. At ALITAX we will check your super and your tax, and send you a free written estimate. What you are owed. What we would charge. What reaches your account.

No obligation. And you are welcome to take that estimate to any other agent and compare.

Whatever you decide — please do not leave your money in Australia.

It is yours. You earned it.
