Tax return preparation

Preparing taxes can be a daunting and time-intensive process. As the Tax Office intensifies its focus on compliance, missing details on your tax return—whether by accident or not—can lead to significant repercussions. With over 40 years of combined experience in tax return preparation, we will ensure that every eligible dollar is considered and claimed.

Investment properties

There are several advantages to owning an investment property, including deductions for negatively geared properties. We specialise in ensuring you understand and maximise the Tax Benefits while owning the Investment property.

Overseas investments

Australian Tax Residents are generally taxed on all worldwide Income, and this can include but is not limited to the following:
• Income from overseas employment and personal services
• Income from assets and investments
• Capital gains on overseas assets
• Overseas Pension
• Overseas Dividend and Interest

Capital gains tax

Capital gains tax preparation includes calculating the profit or loss from selling assets such as property, shares, or investments. This process entails accurate record-keeping, which includes maintaining detailed information about both the purchase and sale of these assets to determine the taxable amount. Our team ensures proper planning and applies relevant deductions to help reduce tax liability while maintaining compliance with regulations.

Managed funds

We ensure that all income distributions from Managed Funds, such as dividends and interest, are accurately recorded. We also analyse the tax implications, including capital gains tax, to minimise liability. Finally, we ensure that all required compliance is met in accordance with the latest tax regulations.

Crypto currency taxes

Cryptocurrency can potentially be a complex matter. We have in-depth experience analysing cryptocurrency transactions to determine tax implications and minimise any liability that may arise from dealing in cryptocurrencies.

Non-resident taxation

Non-residents are required to lodge a tax return if they earned income in Australia or from Australian sources. This includes income from employment, business activities, rental properties, and investments within Australia. Not lodging a tax return can lead to penalties and interest on any unpaid taxes. Our team is available to help determine your tax obligations and ensure your return is submitted accurately and on time.

If clients find themselves unable to meet their ATO debt by the due date, we proactively engage with the ATO to negotiate a customised payment plan that suits their individual needs.
