Do I need to come into an office?

No. Most clients work with us entirely online, wherever they are in Australia. We're happy to meet in Brisbane or on the Gold Coast if you prefer.

I'm behind on my tax returns. Can you help?

Yes. We'll bring your lodgments up to date and deal with the ATO for you, including requesting penalty relief where it's available.

Should I be a sole trader, company or trust?

It depends on your income, risk and plans. We'll compare the options with your real numbers before you register anything.

Which accounting software do you work with?

Xero, MYOB and QuickBooks. If you don't have software yet, we'll recommend what suits your business.

How much will it cost?

We quote a fixed fee before we start. Fill in the quick quote form and we'll come back to you within one business day.

Who needs to lodge a tax return?

Most people who earn income in Australia, including employees, sole traders, investors and landlords. You may also need to lodge if tax was withheld from your pay or you made a capital gain.

What's the difference between a BAS and an IAS?

A BAS is for businesses registered for GST. An IAS is used by businesses that aren't registered for GST but still need to report PAYG withholding or PAYG instalments. Both are usually quarterly; large withholders lodge monthly.

What happens if I miss a deadline?

The ATO can charge penalties and interest. If you've missed one, contact us — we can often lodge quickly and request that penalties be reduced.

When is my tax return due?

If you lodge yourself, 31 October. If you're on a registered tax agent's client list before then, you may be able to lodge later under the agent's lodgment program.

Is my information kept confidential?

Yes. As a registered tax agent we're bound by the Code of Professional Conduct under the Tax Agent Services Act and by Australian privacy law.
