MY SALARY RETURN
Email Article
The average cost of having your tax completed and lodged is around $100. As this figure is a deduction on next years return you will receive part of that back in your refund, the amount depending on the level of your taxable income. Hence the cost is not huge.
The advantages of seeing a good accountant are –
- The legislation is now 8500 pages. Do you have the time or the interest in reading through this to make sure that you are declaring and claiming correctly.
- The tax pack is now 350 pages long. Again are you interested in going through that word for word after you have read the legislation.
- Your Accountant has a professional obligation to know how to get the best possible return for you while keeping you safe within the guidelines of the ATO rules.
- If you are subject to an audit your Accountant will represent you on the day. This can be a very difficult experience which you can avoid by having an Accountant.
- Your Accountant is there for you to answer questions through the year. If you are thinking of taking a step in a different direction, your Accountant will be able to give you the tax orientated side of your decision. He/she will help you plan and make you aware of the pitfalls.
- Your Accountant will be able to offer you other services which will enhance the safety of your future financial security.

Ask the person completing your tax return of their qualification and experience. You deserve to be serviced by someone who has worked hard for the opportunity to have you as a client.
