FAQs
We’ve got your questions covered
Can you help me reduce my taxes?
Yes - through lawful tax planning. As a trusted accounting company in ACT, we review your situation, identify eligible deductions and offsets, and time/report items correctly so your position is optimised while remaining fully compliant with Australian tax law.
Is it better to go to a tax agent in Canberra?
If your affairs are complex (e.g., multiple income streams, investments, a business, property, or an SMSF), a registered tax agent can prepare and file returns, provide tax advice, and deal with the ATO on your behalf. For straightforward returns, doing it yourself may be fine; complexity is the key factor.
I haven’t filed a tax return in years. Am I too late?
No. You can still file outstanding returns. The ATO may apply penalties for late lodgment, but a tax agent can help you compile records, prepare multiple years, and communicate with the ATO to bring you up to date.
How much do you charge?
Fees depend on the scope and complexity of your work. We’ll provide an itemised quote after a short consultation.
What’s the difference between accounting and bookkeeping?
Bookkeeping records day-to-day transactions (invoices, payroll, bank reconciliations). Accounting interprets those records - preparing reports, advising on compliance and tax, and helping with planning and decisions. Both work together.
What is the difference between an accountant and a tax agent?
In Australia, a registered tax agent (registered with the Tax Practitioners Board) is legally permitted to provide tax agent services, such as preparing and lodging returns and giving tax advice. An accountant may focus on reporting, analysis, and broader business advice. Some professionals bring expertise in both domains.
How do I check if an adviser is legitimate?
To confirm tax services, search the Tax Practitioners Board public register for a current registration. For accountants, look for recognised professional membership (e.g., CPA Australia, CA ANZ, or IPA) and relevant experience.
Can you work with the software of my choice?
Yes. We work with leading platforms including Xero and MYOB, and can assist with set-up, migration, or day-to-day processing.
