Common questions

Everything you might want to know

When is the tax return deadline?

For individuals lodging directly with the ATO, the deadline is 31 October each year. Clients who lodge through a registered tax agent (like Artiq Advisory) may qualify for an extended lodgement deadline — often up to 15 May the following year. We manage these deadlines on your behalf so you never need to worry.

What documents do I need to provide?

It depends on your situation, but typically: private health insurance statement, receipts for any work-related deductions, interest income from banks, and any share or investment statements. We'll send you a tailored checklist once we understand your circumstances — so nothing gets missed.

Can you handle returns for previous years?

Yes — we can prepare and lodge returns for prior years, including amended returns where deductions were missed. The ATO allows amendments up to two years after the original assessment for most individuals and small businesses, and up to four years for larger businesses and complex structures.

How does the process work if I've never used an accountant before?

We make it straightforward. After a brief discovery call, we send you a simple document checklist. You upload your documents securely — we handle everything from there. We'll contact you if we have any questions, then present the completed return to you for review before lodgement. Most clients find the whole process takes less than 30 minutes of their time.

What if the ATO contacts me or flags my return?

We handle all ATO correspondence on your behalf. If your return is selected for review or the ATO has questions, we liaise directly with them — preparing responses, providing supporting documentation, and representing your position. You won't need to navigate complex ATO communications alone.
