A key lodgment deadline is approaching on 15 May, and it may apply to you if you’re lodging through a tax agent.

𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼:
▪️ Individuals and trusts lodging through a tax agent
▪️ Clients who were registered with their tax agent by 31 October

Good record keeping can make tax time far less stressful and help ensure nothing is missed along the way.

Whether you’re an individual, investor or business owner, keeping organised records throughout the year can save time and make reporting more accurate.

Why good record keeping matters:
▪️ Makes tax time quicker and easier
▪️ Helps support deductions and claims
▪️ Reduces the risk of missed income or expenses
▪️ Gives you clearer visibility over your finances

Simple ways to stay organised:
▪️ Keep receipts and invoices in one place
▪️ Save digital copies as you go
▪️ Separate business and personal spending where possible
▪️ Reconcile accounts regularly
▪️ Use accounting software or apps to track expenses

Common misconceptions:
▪️ I only need records at tax time — staying organised year-round is best
▪️ Bank statements alone are always enough — supporting documents may still be needed
▪️ Small purchases don’t matter — they can add up over time

A few minutes of organisation now can save hours later.

Not sure what records you should be keeping? We’re happy to help.

With just 7 days until the upcoming due date, now is the perfect time to make sure everything is organised.

If your PAYGI, BAS or Super obligations are still outstanding, it’s best to act early and avoid last-minute pressure. Staying ahead of deadlines can save unnecessary stress and help keep everything running smoothly.

It’s often not the big expenses that get missed, it’s the smaller, everyday costs that add up over time.

Being aware of what you may be able to claim can make a difference, as long as the expenses are work-related and properly documented.

Commonly missed deductions can include:
▪️ Subscriptions and memberships (industry bodies, software, journals)
▪️ Home office expenses (internet, electricity, workspace use)
▪️ Work-related vehicle or travel expenses
▪️ Small purchases like stationery, tools or supplies
▪️ Professional fees and training related to your work

Key points to remember:
▪️ You must have a record to support your claim
▪️ Expenses need to be directly related to earning your income
▪️ If there’s a private portion, only the work-related part can be claimed

Common misconceptions:
▪️ Small expenses aren’t worth claiming — they can add up quickly
▪️ If you didn’t keep a receipt, you can still claim it — not always the case
▪️ Everything used “sometimes” for work is fully deductible

How to avoid missing deductions:
▪️ Keep records throughout the year, not just at tax time
▪️ Review your expenses regularly (monthly or quarterly)
▪️ Separate business and personal spending where possible

Not sure what you might be missing? It may be worth reviewing before tax time approaches.
