Why you need to notify us
Let us know if your client is not required to lodge a tax return for a particular year or future years so we can update our records.
It will avoid:
- compliance action that may take place once the return becomes overdue
- preparation, lodgment and processing of a nil return.
How to notify us
The best way to advise us that a return or further return is not required is by either:
- Online services for agents – see Non-lodgment advice
- Practitioner lodgment service – see Client update.
Remember to notify us before the due date if lodgment is not required or further returns are not necessary.
If no further returns are required or you will no longer represent the client, you need to remove the client from your client list.
Low income earners
Remember that even if their income is under the tax-free threshold, some low income earners may need to lodge.
