Thank you Terry.

I don’t remember claiming this when I first purchased the property. Do you know where or how I am able to try and claim this back and amend my tax return if possible?

Thanks for your reply guys. What wouod be the best way to get in contact with the right person to show some interest in the property. Is there an email or number to call for nsw?

Thanks guys. Makes alot more sense now.For some reason I've always thought that any capital gains will be taxed at your current tax rate.
