OnlyFans star is horrified after discovering she has a tax bill worth $176,000

An Aussie OnlyFans creator is devastated after discovering her staggering $176,000 tax bill.

Tasha Paige has taken to TikTok to vent about the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) hitting her with the hefty charge.

Initially, the OnlyFans star believed she owned the $86,000; however, Paige revealed she has since found out she owes $150,000 to the ATO and an extra $26,000 in GST.

Offfft. My wallet hurts.

“I will and I can complain about this,” she said to her more than 271,000 followers.

“My tax bill is actually $150,000 for the last 12 months not including the $26,000 I need to pay on top of that for GST, because apparently my body is an object – that’s why I have to pay GST.

"So yeah, thanks to the government for confirming that.”

Paige went on to say how frustrated she is over the bill, especially considering the government doesn’t ‘recognise sex work as real work’.

She added the money she owed probably wasn’t going to anything she actually ‘supported’.

“My moot racked me up a bill of over $150,000,” continued Tasha in her TikTok video. “If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry.”

And unfortunately for her, there was no error.

“My accountant has cross-checked everything,” she continued.

The video had many feeling for the online content creator, as one person wrote: “It legit hurts paying the ATO so much.”

Another noted: “They don’t want to making money, but they’ll gladly take a cut.”

While a third stated: “Goddamn!! That’s freaking insane!!”

Paige is one of many Australians facing increased bills due to the government removing the low and middle income tax offset.

The temporary measure was introduced in 2019 and allowed people earning between $37,000 and $126,000 to be eligible for a tax break of up to $1,500.

But as the 'lamington' came to an end on June 30 this year, many Aussies aren’t too happy with how much they owe the ATO.

Independent economist Chris Richardson said not extending the tax cut would impact many families, especially in this cost of living crisis.

“On top of higher interest rates and inflation, it's really going to affect households. Retailers are also going to feel this, for sure," he told the Sydney Morning Herald.

“The Reserve Bank has done a lot of work by lifting interest rates but don't under-estimate what the government is doing by doing nothing.”
