Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between Business Activity Statements (BAS) and Instalment Activity Statements (IAS)?
A Business Activity Statement (BAS) lodgement is used to report and pay GST, PAYG withholding, PAYG instalments, and other taxes.
An Instalment Activity Statement (IAS) lodgement is typically used by businesses not registered for GST and is primarily for reporting PAYG instalments or PAYG withholding. We can help determine which one applies to your business and ensure all BAS & IAS lodgements are accurate and timely.
How do I know if I need monthly, quarterly, or annually BAS lodgements?
Your BAS lodgement frequency depends on your business size and ATO registration. Most small to medium businesses lodge quarterly, but if your turnover is higher or your GST liabilities are significant, you may be required to lodge monthly. With our IAS & BAS lodgement services, we assess your situation and handle the appropriate schedule for you.
What happens if I miss a BAS or IAS lodgement deadline?
Missing an IAS or BAS lodgement can result in late lodgement penalties, general interest charges, or increased scrutiny from the ATO. With our IAS & BAS lodgement services, we send timely reminders and manage your lodgements to keep your business compliant and avoid unnecessary penalties.
Can you help correct a BAS or IAS lodgement I’ve already submitted?
Yes. If you’ve made an error on a past BAS or IAS, we can help amend it as part of our BAS & IAS lodgement services. As registered BAS agents, we’re authorised to correct past statements and communicate directly with the ATO on your behalf to resolve any issues.
Do you offer BAS and IAS lodgement services as part of a bookkeeping package?
Absolutely. We provide both standalone BAS/IAS lodgement services and bundled packages that include bookkeeping, payroll, and cash flow management. This ensures all your financial reporting is streamlined and managed in one place.
