Well done, we've made it! Wednesday May 21, 2008 was Tax Freedom Day (TFD) – the day New Zealanders stop working to pay the nation’s tax bill and start earning for themselves.
The Staples Rodway-commissioned research shows Kiwis paid off their taxes five days earlier this year. However, this is still 9 days longer than it took Australians - a gap which widened to more than three weeks during the years 2004 to 2007.
See how our Tax Freedom Day compares with other countries in the full report.
