I have started my own business and wonder if I need to register for GST.
An entity carrying on an enterprise in Australia whose GST turnover is $75,000 or more ($150,000 or more for non-profit organisations). Entities who are carrying on an enterprise in Australia and whose GST turnover is less than $75,000 (less than $150,000 for non-profit organisations) can choose to register.

When do I have to lodge my tax return?

Please contact us to see whether you will be able to take advantage of the deferral arrangement.

Can you prepare multiple years returns at the same time?
