    The new threshold of $18k commences 1 July 2012 (i.e. the 2013 year). Therefore it will affect your 2013 income tax return. However, you will notice your amounts of tax withheld from 1 July 2012 will be in line with the new threshold. Depending on your income you will not necessarily "get it back".
