Australian Instructors Question for Special Rates and Conditions on Taxform

[balance1]

any australian Instructor that can tell me if they clicked yes or no on the Special Rates and Conditions page for the tax form??

Reading through it I think its a no but because Udemy put a note up saying our income would be classified as Royalties which may be special conditions?

I also found out that the tax form I would need to use to file income tax in  2022 Form 1042-S  (and not W8BEN) and under that form they also list royalties

so I am confused...

any info would be appreciated

Hi, no I haven't, my daughter who lives in the US looked into it for me and thinks we have to click no, I haven't registered yet as I find earning $10 on a course that I have to pay tax on or at least file a tax return in the US as well as dealing with the Tax system here is not worth it

Thank you for your response. It is not a straightforward process. That is for sure. I am still working on it. Mike
