Labor will deliver its own version of the federal budget just months after the May election if the party wins power.
Shadow treasurer Chris Bowen says Labor will release a major economic statement in the first quarter of the 2019/20 financial year.
"We need to update the forecasts with the new government in place, and then, of course, we would return to the normal budget cycle of budgets in May from 2020 onwards," Mr Bowen told the ABC's Insiders on Sunday.
