TRS TAX Refund with First Name and Last Name

Is it possible to get TAX refund from TRS if there is kind of missing middle name?

EX) Full name is "Kung Fu Panda" but tax invoice only "Kung Panda"

Does anyone know?? I bought something from Goodguys last early months..if I contact them they will give me a new invoice with full name??

Thank you for the comments guys

  • One more question
    Im going overseas with parent and come back together. If I claim around $1100, do I have to declare when I'm back to oz or don't have to? as it's under "passenger concession"

    It wont matter as long as the middle name is actually in the middle name section of your passport. If your middle name is in the first name section of the passport then you might have an issue.

    • is there in the middle name section on the passport?
      my passport shows me

      NAME
      "Panda"
      "Kung Fu"

      there is no middle or even no first name section.

  • You'll be ok with a missing middle name.

    • My actual name is like "KungFu" but there is a gap between "Kung" and Fu" so it became like a middle name.
      on Passport
      NAME
      "Panda"
      "Kung Fu"

      is will be fine with that??

      • It'll be fine. They'll know it's you.

        • Thank you.
          I was asking to Good guys to change the name and sending me a new invoice…but no reply.

    In regard to the other recent thread on TRS which is locked: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/449687

    As usual people jumped the gun with unhelpful comments. You can indeed return the item for refund. See details and conditions here:

  • Good guys will change it if you ask but you don't need to do it as long as first and last name is there. I have a middle name and did TRS in NOV. No issues with middle name not being on the invoice.

    • I sent an e-mail to Good guys to change the name and sending me a new invoice…but no reply. Y_Y
      Looks like my middle name but it's not actually lol

    That should be fine. If they ask you about your middle name just say FU.

  • please OP. relax and show them your kungfu

    • Sure then u can see me on Board security…and u guys know it's me :)

    If it's under 1k you don't even need a name on the invoice according to this.

    • together will be around $1100 T_T
