Q: What is the best business structure for a startup?

 

The best structure depends on various factors like your business goals, liability concerns, and tax considerations. We can guide you in choosing the most suitable structure for your startup.

Q: How quickly can you help me set up my business?

We aim to complete business registrations within 3-5 business days, depending on your requirements, and our current workload. Expected turnaround times will be discussed with you up front at the time of engaging us so you know what to expect each step of the way.

Q: How long will it take to lodge my business tax return?

If you’re operating as a sole trader we work on a first in, first served basis to ensure fairness to all clients.  Most online tax returns are processed within 2-3 weeks of receiving complete information, depending on complexity and our current work loads.

For trading entities, we schedule the tax compliance requirements for your group to a particular month.  This ensures we are able to deliver final accounts and tax returns withing the scheduled month.  We will discuss availability and scheduling with you and you will receive a reminder and checklist in the month prior.

Q: Will I receive a fine from the ATO for lodging my business tax return late?

The ATO may issue fines for late lodgements (this is at the discretion of the ATO). If you have outstanding tax obligations for prior years it is unlikely that we can get these remitted, however if you have circumstances that contributed to late lodgement we will try.  If you’re a new client with an early lodgement date we will either request an extension from the ATO to allow us to properly review and prepare your returns or if suitable we will accommodate your lodgement due date into our workflow scheduling.

Q: Can I use your services if I’m not on the Gold Coast?

Yes! We offer appointments face-to-face, via phone or video (skype), allowing us to support business startups across Australia, no matter where you’re located.
