    Hi Milt 

     

    Pensioner and Seniors Offset has been removed from TFN Declarations a number of years ago. When they were included, the offset could only be claimed from this Payer if the Tax Free Threshold was also claimed from this Payer. 

     

    Check with the ATO however I doubt PAYG Withholding rules allow you to do what you want. 

     

    Regards
