📢 Heads up for business owners: the ATO has automatically moved some employers to monthly PAYG withholding from July 2026 (previously quarterly).

Combined with payday super rolling out, this could mean extra pressure on your cash flow.

If you're not sure whether this affects you, or need help lodging monthly activity statements, give us a call, we're here to help.

The ATO is keeping a much closer eye on work-related car expense claims this tax season, especially two common habits: claiming the trip from home to work, and always claiming the maximum 5,000km.

We wrote all about it (and what it means for your tax return) in a new article on our website. Read it for yourself 👇

📢 Heads up for business owners — Payday Super is changing how and when you pay super for contractors!

From 1 July 2026, if you're currently required to pay super for an independent contractor, that obligation continues, but with new timing rules:
✅ Super must be paid every payday
✅ It must reach their super fund within 7 business days

Paying by invoice? The payday is counted from the date you pay that invoice, so super needs to land in their fund within 7 business days of that.

Our tip: pay their super at the same time you pay them. It's the easiest way to stay compliant and avoid any headaches down the track.

Not sure if your contractors are eligible for super? Drop us a message
