PAYG withholding

Reporting using electronic storage media

Reporting using electronic storage media involves preparing and sending your PAYG withholding annual reports to us, in the mail, using magnetic media for example, CD-ROMs, DVDs or flash drives.

You can report your PAYG withholding information electronically, as long as you use payroll software that meets our specifications. You can purchase commercial payroll software that meets our specifications or you can develop your own in-house software.
