Are you or your business being Audited by the ATO? At Mount Martha Accountants we are Tax Specialists with experience in ATO Audits and Disputes. In Australian we have what’s called a “Self Assesment System” that means we lodge our tax affairs’ ourselves with numbers we decide (with or without the help of Tax Agent). If the ATO wants to check our Tax Returns are correct they have to check what we have lodged against reality. This is what an Audit is – just a checking process.
Even if you have done everything right you can be Audited, in this case there is nothing to worry about even though the process may be a little stressful. If however you realise you have made a mistake then you could be looking at substantial fines and interest. In either event it is critical you do not ignore the situation and you engage with the Tax Office actively and quickly. If you are not confident doing this yourself then we can act as your Tax Agent and help with the Audit.
