Why using TickTax beats DIY:

• Extension of Time - Our Australian tax year is the financial year 1 July to 30 June.  Tax returns are required to be lodged by 31 October. At TickTax Australia we're registered tax agents, giving us an extended lodgement program.  If you wish to avoid late lodgement penalties from the ATO, contact us to register as our client before 31 October and we will ensure you have an extension of time to lodge in most cases.
• Electronic Lodgement - At TickTax Australia we use up-to-date secure ATO compliant software to lodge your income tax returns.
• Money Back Satisfaction Guarantee - We guarantee to refund you your tax preparation fee if you are not satisfied with our service.
• Free email help - for registered clients, we offer email help on a 1 - 2 business day turnaround.
• Return Types - we do all types of income tax returns including individuals, small business (sole trader, partnership and trusts) and company tax returns
• As well as - BAS, IAS, and Superannuation fund returns

• Avoid Penalties - the ATO uses a Self Assessment system whereby it works out your refund or bill based on the information you provide. The return is not examined by the ATO before assessment but may be subject to audit action on a random desk audit after you are sent your notice of assessment.  Heavy penalties and interest may apply and deductions may be reversed if you over claim.

Not happy with your return? Use our Review Service

If you submitted your tax return yourself, or had another accountant prepare it for you, and you are not happy with your return - all is not lost.

TickTax offers a tax return review service where we will happily review the information previously submitted, and help you work towards a return you are more comfortable with.

Your rental property return

Did you know that as the owner of a rental property you have a 6% chance of being audited by the tax office?

It pays to get it right. At TickTax, we have extensive personal knowledge of how the rental property market works. We can also refer you to quantity surveyors, real estate managers and other external parties to help make your investment work to its maximum potential.

Tax and Trading

If you've got a share portfolio, you will already know that capital gains tax can be a nasty thing. At TickTax, we help our clients understand their capital gains tax liability. We can also help track down missing dividend statements.

For managed funds investors, we can help to decipher those somewhat complicated managed funds statements.
