How to lodge the RTP schedule
You may be able to lodge the RTP schedule as part of the tax return using the same SBR-enabled software you use to complete and lodge your tax return.
If your software doesn't provide the RTP schedule for electronic lodgment, you can lodge through:
Online services

Post
If you completed the paper version of the schedule, you can post it with any attachments to:
AUSTRALIAN TAXATION OFFICE
PO BOX 9845
LOCALITY STATE POSTCODE
Don't use correction fluid or tape to make corrections to your schedule. If you make a mistake, make corrections electronically and print a new copy.
Attach additional information
You must include your entity's Australian business number (ABN) on each page of each document you attach.
If you use Online services for business or Online services for agents to provide additional information, there is a limit of 6 attachments per message, with a maximum file size of 6 MB.
Acceptable file types for online lodgment are:
- .doc, .docx, .dotx,.rtf
- .xls, .xlsx, .xltx
- .tif, .jpg, .bmp, .png, .gif
- .zip
- .mpp
- .ppt, .pptx, .potx, .ppsx.
Our systems will reject any files that are too large or in unacceptable formats.
Changing your entity's RTP schedule
If you want to change any of the information you report on the schedule after you lodge it, you will need to lodge a new schedule.
In the new schedule you must provide changes to a Category A or B RTP in Section C. In the Concise description field, enter the RTP number used on the earlier schedule (for example, 2026-number) and detail the changes.
Reasonable care
You must complete the schedule correctly and with reasonable care. This means taking the same care that could be expected of a reasonable person in your position.
Penalties may apply for false or misleading statements.
For more information, see Miscellaneous Taxation Ruling MT 2008/1 Penalty relating to statements: meaning of reasonable care, recklessness and intentional disregard.
