    When you arrive in Australia, one of the first things you need to do it to register with the tax office and get a 'Tax File Number' (TFN). This will allow the government to work how what tax rate you will be subjected to when you are planning to work.

    It is also used when you open a bank account and claim tax rebates. It is a very important number.
