What are the differences between those who have contact with the ATO and those who do not?

Abstract

This research note draws on data from those individuals who took part in the Community Hopes, Fears and Actions survey (CHFAS) and The Australian Tax System: Fair or not? survey (ATSFS). Two sub-samples are compared - those who responded once or more to Have you ever requested information about your taxsituation? or Have you ever requested general information about the tax system? and those who answered never to both these two questions.
