Can you claim back tax on DASP IN tax return?

    I suspect I can't but just thought I'd check here because doing a Google search for this doesn't seem to help and just leads me to "taxback.com" and other money-making artists.

    I got my Departing Australia Superannuation Payment paid to me back in July. Tax on this was 38%. But on the letter it mentioned keeping the reference number etc for my tax return. I was under the assumption that I couldn't claim back this tax, but this confused me.

    I did my tax return for year ended 30/6/2014 awhile back, and there was a section for this superannuation. I filled in the info, but it wouldn't allow me to enter it as I received my superannuation after the 30 June year end.

    So I'm a bit confused. Am I to do another tax return next year, even though I will not have been in Australia at all during the 2014/15 year, to claim back the 38% tax on my DASP, or do I just do nothing?

    Can somebody please help with this?

    Anytime I type "Claim back DASP withholding tax" into Google, I just get a load of crap from taxback agencies about how they can help you claim your super back! Not what I am looking for.

    Tax on the DASP is a final tax and cannot be reclaimed as far as I am aware
