Working Holiday Maker tax data (not available)

Defunct. The ATO does not publish Working Holiday Maker aggregates as open data. No resource matching working holiday makers, WHM or backpackers exists in any ATO package on data.gov.au, in the current Taxation Statistics release or in the archived ones. This function was shipped in 0.1.0 on the assumption that such a table existed; it never returned WHM data.

Usage

ato_whm(year = "latest")

Source

Australian Taxation Office Taxation Statistics. Licensed CC BY 2.5 AU.

Arguments

year

"YYYY-YY" or "latest". Ignored.

Value

Never returns; always aborts.

Details

It now aborts with a pointer to the published source rather than resolving to an unrelated table. It will be removed in a future release.
