Australian Tax Return Filing

Firstly, you’ll get a free refund estimation and quote.

The fee for a standard, straightforward tax return is $99 but the quote will depend on your individual case. There’s also an under-21 student discount price of $75.

Depending on your circumstances, there are a number of offsets and expenses you may be able to claim. We’ll assess your case and let you know.

To file your return, we’ll need:

1. A copy of your photo identification
2. All PAYG summaries from your employment
3. Signed letter of engagement appointing us as your tax agent
4. Your TFN and TFN of any family member you’re applying for

For certain expenses you won’t need receipts. But for other types of expenses you’ll need them. We’ll let you know what’s required when you apply.

No, as it depends on a number of factors including what tax you’ve paid, what your income was and any offsets and expenses. It will ultimately depend on what the Australian Tax Office decides.

However, we’ll do everything possible to reduce your tax liability and maximise any refunds.

You’ll be charged $170 every 28 days your tax return is late after the October 31st deadline.

It takes around 10-14 working days unless you file during a busy tax season when there may be queues at the tax office possibly causing delays.
