2026 TPAR's were due for lodgment 28th August. Have you lodged yours?

If your business pays contractors for providing certain services on your behalf, you may need to lodge a Taxable payments annual report (TPAR).

It tells us who you paid and how much you paid them.

You may need to lodge if you paid contractors for:

🚧 building and construction
🧹 cleaning
🚚 courier and road freight
💻 IT
🛡️ surveillance, investigation or security.

Did you know, that if you are engaged with a Registered Tax Agent, you can** get a concessional lodgment due date?

Who doesn't like extra time to get their taxes done, especially if you have a tax bill to pay!

You have to be on a Registered Agents client list and have your tax returns up to date BEFORE the 31st October to receive the extended lodgment due date. **Various factors can affect the lodgment due dates we receive for our clients, so always best to query around your personal circumstances to get the best and correct advice.

I hate to spring this on you however, its the 1st day of spring! A pinch and a punch for the 1st day of the month! 🐇💐

A few key reminders for Tax 2026 -

1. The ATO's compliance approach for Payday Super
What you can expect for the first year of Payday Super.

Act now to be ready for 1 July, and keep in mind it may take a few pay cycles to settle into the new process.
Employers who genuinely try to do the right thing will not be the subject of The ATO's compliance action in the first year of Payday Super.
Super itself is not changing, just when it’s paid. Super is still going to all eligible employees, in the right amount, at the right time, and to the right fund.
Check out The ATO's link below for information which explain how employers can transition from paying super quarterly to paying super each payday.

2. End-of-year finalisation through STP
Making a finalisation declaration
You need to make a finalisation declaration by 14 July each year to ensure your employees can access their finalised information to complete their tax return.

https://www.ato.gov.au/businesses-and-organisations/hiring-and-paying-your-workers/single-touch-payroll/start-reporting/end-of-year-finalisation-through-stp

3.Standard deduction for work-related expenses
The Government announced a standard deduction up to $1,000 for work-related expenses for eligible taxpayers.
The measure will commence on 1 July 2026 and apply to the 2026–27 individual tax return. The standard deduction does NOT apply to the 2025–26 individual tax return.
