We're hearing from many business owners who are unsure what the proposed changes mean and whether they'll be affected.

Here's an update on the latest developments and when the new rules are expected to apply.

Payday Super is now in effect, requiring super to be paid within seven business days of each payday.

The changes bring new obligations, stricter penalties and important transition issues for employers. Businesses that haven't updated their payroll processes should act without delay.

Here's what every employer should know: https://epochaccounting.com.au/payday-super-has-arrived-what-employers-need-to-know/

The new financial year is almost here. Are you ready?

A number of significant tax and superannuation changes take effect from 1 July 2026, including:
✅ Payday Super commences
✅ The new $1,000 instant tax deduction begins
✅ The $20,000 instant asset write-off becomes permanent
✅ The $3 million super tax takes effect
✅ The Transfer Balance Cap increases to $2.1 million

Some of these changes create new opportunities. Others introduce new obligations and potential compliance risks.

For employers, the move to Payday Super is likely to be the biggest operational change, requiring super contributions to be paid alongside wages rather than quarterly.

For individuals and investors, now is the time to review your superannuation and tax position before the new financial year begins.

If you're unsure how these changes affect you, contact our team to discuss your situation: https://epochaccounting.com.au/contact-epoch-accounting/

30 June is fast approaching, making now the perfect time for SMSF members and trustees to review contributions, pension requirements, and year-end compliance obligations.

From maximising contribution opportunities to claiming deductions, a few timely checks can help avoid costly mistakes and preserve valuable tax benefits.

With contribution caps and the Transfer Balance Cap increasing from 1 July 2026, there may be a number of strategic opportunities worth considering before the end of the financial year.

If you have questions about your SMSF, reach out to us today: https://epochaccounting.com.au/contact-epoch-accounting/

Changes are coming to EV tax incentives.

From 1 April 2027, the Government will begin phasing out the current FBT exemption for electric vehicles, reducing the tax benefits available for future EV purchases and novated leases.

The transition will occur in stages, giving businesses and employees time to prepare. Understanding the timeline will be key to making informed vehicle and salary packaging decisions.

Now is the time to review your plans and assess how the changes could impact you.

Debit and credit card surcharges end 1 October.

Is your business ready? Australians currently pay around $1.6 billion in card surcharges every year. From 1 October, those fees will disappear for customers, bringing simpler pricing and fewer compliance requirements for businesses.

The good news? Lower payment-processing costs and a smoother customer experience.

The challenge? Business owners will need to review their pricing strategies now to ensure margins remain protected when surcharge revenue disappears.
