Thanks for visiting us at our Bunbury office this morning Bunbury Community Radio!

The Bunbury Kia *Buzz* was on the road again this morning! Went to Sponsor OPTITAX, 29 Bonnefoi Boulevard, Bunbury. Yes it's tax time. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Let Stewart & Julie help you get your tax return sooner. They are pictured with Enzo & John.

Hope YOU caught up with them!

Can you believe it's nearly that time of year, again!!

By late July, your income statement will be marked as ‘tax ready’, and your data will have been pre-filled. When this happens, you’ve got the green light to lodge your 2026 tax return.

Last year, taxpayers who lodged BEFORE pre-fill were more than twice as likely to have their returns amended.

Don’t be like them 😰

We need time to receive info from your employer, banks, government agencies and health funds so we can get it right the first time.

If you would like Optitax to assist with your tax obligations, reach out to the friendly team in Bunbury, Derby or Perth 👇

💼 Payday Super is coming – is your business ready?

From 1 July 2026, a major change is coming to how superannuation is paid in Australia.

Under the new Payday Super rules, employers will need to pay Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions at the same time as wages, instead of quarterly.

📌 What this means for businesses:
• Super will need to be calculated every pay run
• Contributions must reach the employee’s super fund within a short timeframe after payday
• Payroll systems, cashflow planning and processes may need updating

📌 What this means for employees:
• Super will be paid more frequently
• You’ll be able to track contributions sooner in your super fund
• Earlier payments can help grow retirement savings through compounding over time

These changes are designed to reduce unpaid super and improve transparency across the system.

⚠️ While the change doesn’t start until July 2026, many small businesses will need time to review payroll processes, software and cashflow planning.

✅ Need help preparing?
Our team can assist with:
• Reviewing payroll and super processes
• Ensuring your systems are ready for Payday Super
• Cashflow planning and compliance support

📩 If you’re a small business owner and want to get ahead of the changes, get in touch with us today.
