Tax Return Guide

What Is A Tax Return?

A tax return is a form submitted to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) that reports income, expenses, and other pertinent tax information. It is used to calculate the amount of tax you owe or the refund you are entitled to receive. Under the self-assessment system, you are responsible for declaring all your income and supporting all your claims for deductions and tax offsets when you sign your tax return.

What Is The Tax Return Deadline?

In Australia, the financial year runs from 1 July to 30 June, and you can start lodging your tax return from 1 July each year for the previous financial year. If you’re lodging your own tax return, the deadline is 31 October. However, if you use a registered tax agent like Tax Stuff and sign up before that date, you may receive an extended lodgement deadline. In summary, lodging early helps avoid delays and gives you more time to get your refund or sort out any payments.

FAQ

Questions and Answers About Our Accounting Services

Is it worth getting an accountant to do your tax?

Absolutely! A qualified accountant can help you maximise deductions, avoid costly mistakes, and ensure full compliance with ATO requirements. For many individuals and businesses, the tax savings and peace of mind easily outweigh the cost of hiring an accountant. 

Finding the best accountant comes down to qualifications, experience, communication style, and understanding of your specific needs. Look for CPA-qualified accountants with strong client reviews, a proactive approach, and a track record of helping clients not just stay compliant but thrive financially.

Most ATO tax refunds are processed within 2 weeks of lodging your return. Lodging through a registered tax agent like Tax Stuff ensures accuracy and may help avoid delays.

While you can lodge your tax return yourself via myGov, using a registered tax agent like Tax Stuff on the Central Coast ensures you’re claiming all eligible deductions and complying with the latest tax laws.

If you make an honest mistake, you will not be penalised, but you must pay any money owed, and interest may be charged. If you voluntarily disclose mistakes, this will be considered in deciding any interest and penalties.

The ATO pre-fills information from employers, banks, and other institutions, but you are responsible for ensuring its accuracy.
