FAQ

Tax Returns for Individuals and Trusts are due 31 October of each year.  Tax Returns for Companies and Superannuation Funds are also due 31 October but are allowed a grace period of one month until lodgement (1 December)

However by lodging your return with Aus Taxation you are usually eligible for an extended lodgement deadline.  Individuals with no overdue prior year tax returns typically qualify for an extended due date of at least the 31st of March.

Quarterly Business Activity statements are generally due within 28 days after the end of the quarter (March, June, September and December). For example a March BAS will be due 28 April.

Tax refunds will usually appear in the nominated bank account within 14 days of lodgement but in some cases may take up to 30 days.

This can be obtained either by calling the ATO directly, or arranging for one of our accountants to enquire on your behalf.

Due to the complexities of Australian income tax legislation we do not offer fixed prices for the completion of income tax returns.  Our fees to prepare an individual income tax return start from $100.00. This fee applies to most of our clients with basic income tax returns containing salary and wages income and work related deductions.  Our final price however will vary based a number of factors which may increase the complexity and specialist knowledge required to complete your return.  These factors include, but are not limited to; 

•Rental Property Schedules (investment properties), 

•Share or Options trading, 

•Business schedules, 

•Capital Gains Schedules, 

•Foreign Income and inter jurisdictional tax issues, 

•Tax Residency considerations, 

•Trust income, and 

•ATO requests to complete the Work Related Expense Schedule.
