Overview

For most small businesses the activity statement arrives every quarter, whether or not it's convenient. Get it wrong and errors carry from one period to the next; leave it late and penalties and interest start to build.

Jan prepares your activity statements from your bookkeeping, reviews the GST coding, reconciles PAYG withholding against payroll and checks your instalments still make sense. Then he lodges, with a clear note of what's payable and when.

Questions

Your questions, answered

Can't see yours? Browse all FAQs or ask Jan directly.

When is my BAS due?

Quarterly activity statements are generally due on the 28th day of the month after the quarter ends, except the October to December quarter, which is due on 28 February. Monthly statements are generally due on the 21st of the following month. When a registered agent lodges electronically, the ATO's lodgment program can allow extra time for some quarters. Jan will give you a calendar of your exact dates.

Should I report GST monthly or quarterly?

Most small businesses report quarterly, and larger businesses are required to report monthly. Some smaller businesses choose monthly reporting to keep a closer eye on cash flow or to receive GST refunds sooner. Jan can help you decide which suits your business.

What's the difference between cash and accruals reporting?

On a cash basis you account for GST when you're paid or when you pay a supplier. On an accruals basis you account for it when an invoice is issued or received, even if no money has changed hands. Many small businesses are eligible to report on a cash basis, which can help with cash flow. Jan will confirm which method suits you.

What is Simpler BAS?

Simpler BAS is the default GST reporting method for most small businesses. You report only total sales, GST on sales and GST on purchases, which reduces the detail you need to track through the year. Jan will make sure your bookkeeping supports it.

I'm behind on my BAS. Can you help?

Yes. Jan will work out which statements are outstanding, prepare and lodge them, and talk to the ATO about a payment plan if needed. Getting up to date quickly limits penalties and interest, and the general interest charge the ATO applies to late payments isn't tax deductible if it's incurred from 1 July 2025.
