Quick one for the business owners 👋

Your Q4 BAS (April–June) is due 28 July — extended to 25 August 2026 if lodging online, covering GST, PAYG withholding and instalments for the quarter.

If your paperwork's already sorted, easy. If it's sitting in a pile somewhere, now's the time to get it to us. The sooner we have it, the smoother lodgement goes.

Any questions, flick us a message. That's what we're here for 🤝

Manifesting big refund energy this tax time 🔮🐦

We love the enthusiasm, but here's the thing — the universe isn't lodging your BAS for you. Good records and the right deductions are the real manifestation technique 😉

Want the results without the guesswork? That's our job.

Tempted to lodge your tax return already? Worth holding off a little longer ⏱️

Most of your information including employer income, bank interest and health fund details won't be fully pre-filled until mid-August. Lodge before then and you risk missing income or having to amend your return later.

A few more weeks for accurate data now beats a headache down the track 🙌

When did you last review your business structure? 🤔

Most business owners set theirs up on day one and never look at it again. But as your business grows, the structure that made sense at the start may be costing you money now.

Here's a quick breakdown:

📌 Sole Trader = Simple, but unlimited personal liability and taxed at your personal rate. Can get expensive as income grows.

📌 Company (Pty Ltd) = Flat 25% (or 30%) tax rate and limited liability. More tax effective as your business scales.

📌 Trust = Flexible income distribution and strong asset protection. More complex but powerful when used correctly.

Now that the new tax rates are in effect, it's a perfect time to review! 📊

Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing (AML/CTF) - Lost Trust Deeds - Why this is now a BIG Problem and what you can do about it.

If your trust deed has been lost, it is no longer just an administrative inconvenience. Under the new AML/CTF rules, we may not be able to help you until it is found or resolved.

This is a scenario that is more common than most people realise. A family trust was set up twenty or thirty years ago. The original trust deed was signed, filed away safely somewhere, and has not been seen since. The trust has operated perfectly well for decades. Income tax returns have been lodged, distributions made, assets held all without anyone needing to produce the physical document. That changes from 1 July 2026.

Ever heard of loss carry-back? It's one of the most underrated tax measures around, and it's just been made permanent 👇

Here's how it works: Your business had a profitable year, paid its tax, then had a tough year and made a loss. Instead of waiting to offset that loss against future profits, loss carry-back lets you apply it against tax you already paid and get a refund.

What you need to know:
✅ Available from 1 July 2026
✅ Companies with turnover under $1 billion
✅ Can carry losses back up to two years
⚠️ Companies only - trusts, partnerships and sole traders are excluded
⚠️ Not yet law - subject to Parliament

If you'd like help investigating your potential refund, give as a call!
