Tax Return lodgement is required by the law regardless of it. To lodge a tax return, you need to declare all of your employment income.

No. Deductions only reduce your taxable income. Your tax amount equals taxable income times tax rate. Thus, a tax refund increases (or tax liability reduces) by the amount equivalent to an amount of deductions times tax rate.

Refund is neither bonus nor government subsidy. It is only the difference between tax liability on taxable income and total amount of total tax prepayments (tax withheld). Where total amount of your tax withheld exceeds tax liability on your taxable income, you can get a refund. This difference is a refund as tax is overpaid from your wage. To increase refund, tax liability needs to be reduced. To reduce tax liability, work related deduction can help reduce taxable income. More refund means you received less net amount of weekly or fortnight wage as less tax was withheld. In contrast, less refund means you received more net amount of weekly or fortnight wage as more tax was withheld.
