BAS and GST, prepared and lodged for you.

What's included

A business activity statement is only as accurate as the bookkeeping behind it. That's why we review your records before preparing anything, rather than simply copying totals out of your software. Our BAS and GST service covers:

• Quarterly BAS preparation and lodgement. We review the quarter's transactions, check that GST has been coded correctly on sales and purchases, and make sure the figures reconcile. Then we prepare your BAS, take you through what's payable and lodge it with the ATO.
• GST registration. If your business has reached the GST turnover threshold, or you'd like to register voluntarily, we can register you with the ATO and set up your accounting software to track GST properly.
• PAYG withholding registration. If you're taking on employees, you'll need to register for PAYG withholding. We can handle that and make sure the amounts withheld from wages flow through to your BAS.
• The registered-agent lodgement extension. As a registered tax agent, we can lodge under the ATO's lodgement program for tax practitioners, which often gives you extra time to lodge and pay compared with lodging yourself.

Who it suits

This service suits businesses that want their BAS off their plate and done properly, including:

• businesses registered for GST that lodge a quarterly BAS
• owners who have been doing their own BAS but aren't confident the GST coding is right
• new businesses approaching the GST threshold, or about to hire their first employee
• anyone who has fallen behind with lodgements and wants to get back on track

Many clients pair this with our bookkeeping and payroll services, so the records, the wages and the BAS all come from one place and always agree.

We're based in Greensborough in Melbourne's north-east, and we prepare and lodge BAS for businesses across Australia.

How it works

1. A free consultation. We look at where you're up to: whether you're registered for GST and PAYG withholding, how your books are kept, and whether any statements are overdue.
2. Registrations, if needed. We register you for GST or PAYG withholding and set your software up to match.
3. Each quarter. We review the quarter's books, or keep them for you if we're your bookkeeper, and prepare the BAS. You review it and approve it.
4. Lodgement. We lodge with the ATO and confirm the amount payable and the date it's due, so there's nothing left to chase.

The result is a BAS you can trust, lodged on time, with a clear picture of what you owe well before the payment is due.
