💰🤝 Need help with your Australian tax return?

Tax time can feel confusing, especially if you’re still learning how the Australian system works or don’t have someone you can turn to for trusted advice.

🌈 Rainbow Migrants is connecting LGBTIQA+ migrants, refugees and people seeking asylum with free support from a trusted, LGBTIQA+-affirming tax specialist. People with any visa type are welcome to register.

📅 Registrations close at 11.59 pm on Friday, 7 August 2026. Registering your interest does not book an appointment, we’ll contact registered participants after registrations close to arrange appointments.

We’re always looking for new ways to better support LGBTIQA+ migrants, refugees and people seeking asylum 🌈

Recently, we brought together a range of organisations for the No Wrong Door Forum 🤝 to explore how we can make support more connected, accessible and welcoming.

This is just one more step towards building stronger pathways and community where no one has to navigate their journey alone 🏳️‍🌈✨

GRAI - GLBTI Rights in Ageing Inc is looking for stories from LGBTI people aged 50+ who come from migrant, refugee, or multicultural backgrounds for the 2026 Our Voices project.

This is important to Rainbow Migrants because older migrant LGBTI voices are still too often missing from public stories, services, and policy conversations.

If you’re wondering what this looks like, you can explore stories from previous Our Voices projects here:
https://grai.org.au/our-voices-have-changed-the-world/

You don’t need to share your full name — you can use just your first name, a nickname, or remain anonymous.

If this sounds like you, or someone you care about, please share this with your communities and networks.

These stories really matter!

We are seeking stories for a 2026 edition of Our Voices have changed the world: more stories from older LGBTI people.
