Company Tax Returns from just $330

And we can do it all over the phone.

Company tax returns are complex documents. There are over one hundred and fifty questions to answer and the instruction manual is 254 pages long.

You can find a copy of the ATO company tax return form here, and a copy of the company tax return instruction manual here.

Company directors who want to self-prepare a company tax return will need to file the paper version, so that it can be keyed in manually by ATO staff. Registered Tax Agents can file company tax returns electronically, which speeds up preparation, lodgment and processing.

I offer a fixed fee company tax return service for small businesses that don’t need costly financial reports and unsolicited advice. Of course, if you want additional service I am more than happy to provide it for additional cost.

My name is Ben Collins and I am a tax specialist. I have helped thousands of small businesses with their their company tax returns since I began practicing as a Registered Tax Agent in 2009.

I have a Bachelor of Taxation from UNSW and I was admitted as a Chartered Tax Advisor by the Tax Institute of Australia. I am also a CPA and a Chartered Governance Professional.

All companies that traded in a financial year are required to file a company tax return. Even if the company does not make a profit or does not earn any income, it is reqauired to file if it incurred any expenses or earned any income.

For small companies that are self-lodging, the company tax return due date will be 1st of December. For those filing a company tax return through a Registered Tax Agent, the due date will usually be pushed back to 15th of May.

Small companies are liable for a Failure to Lodge (FTL) penalty equal to $210 for every 28 days the company tax return is late, up to a maximum of $1,050. If the matter is taken to court, the penalties can be much higher.

In many cases, fines can be waived if the person lodging the company tax return provides a reasonable excuse.

I have helped hundreds of businesses with late company tax returns and have successfuly applied for huindreds of thousands of dollars in fine waivers.

Financial reports do not need to be filed with a company tax return. The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) does not require small companies to file financial reports, unless they are part of a large group or foreign owned.

However, you still need to keep accurate financial records for your company so that you can produce financial statements if required.

You may also need financial reports if you are applying for a loan or seeking investment in your company.
