Exemption categories for M1
You were in an exemption category if:

6.  you have a certificate from the Medicare Levy Exemption Certification Unit of Medicare Australia showing that you are not entitled to Medicare benefits because you were a temporary resident for Medicare purposes. A letter from Medicare is not sufficient. For more information on how to apply for an exemption



What if you are exempt from the Medicare levy M2?
Only read this section if you or any of your dependants were exempt or partially exempt from the Medicare levy at any time during 2007-08– for example, you were a defence force member. For more information on the exemption categories for the Medicare levy, read Exemption categories.

If you were in an exemption category for the whole of 2007-08 and you did not have any dependants; or if you had dependants and they were also all in an exemption category and/or they all had private patient hospital cover for the whole of 2007-08, you do not have to pay the surcharge for the full year – 366 days.
If the taxable income for MLS purposes of you and your spouse – if you had one for the whole year – was above the relevant surcharge threshold, you are liable for the surcharge for any period during 2007-08 that:

●
you were not in an exemption category and did not have private patient hospital cover, or

●
one or more of your dependants were not in an exemption category and did not have private patient hospital cover.


Non-exempt dependants are any of your dependants for Medicare levy surcharge purposes who were not in a Medicare exemption category during 2007-08.

What if you had private patient hospital cover for only PART of the year?
Only read this section if you had private patient hospital cover for part of the year.

If you and your dependants – if any – were not in a Medicare levy exemption category at any time during 2007-08 and your taxable income or combined taxable income for MLS purposes was above the relevant threshold. However you must pay MLS for the number of days you or any of your dependants did not have private patient hospital cover during 2007-08

我是495，退税的时候用etax的。印象中好像MEDICARE LEVY是选了不用交钱的。因为495完全没有medicare. 但看了这贴，怎么还要申请什么certificate? 其实我都不太清楚这个MEDICARE LEVY 是什么来的，m1 m2又是什么呢？我不会退税弄错了吧？大家能不能解释一下？先谢了。

我在做etax退税的时候尝试了选择full exemption for full year和不选择，结果在最后的estimate 退税金额上是一样,的。这样的话有必要去索取这个exemption吗？
