Tax Audit

ATO instigated Tax Audits (i.e. Tax, GST, FBT, CGT, Offshore Income etc) are regrettably a part of doing business in Australia. When confronted with a Tax Audit Vicca Chartered Accountants will provide you with support necessary to ensure the audit process has minimal disruptive impact on your business. We provide a robust defence to claims; at Law we ensure that we minimise moneys payable to the ATO; request remission of interest and penalties and ensure that we utilise your rights under the Law to protect you and your families interests. Where mistakes have occurred in the preparation and lodgement of Financial Accounts and Income Tax Returns, a fresh start and open dialogue with the ATO goes a long way into settling misunderstandings. Please contact noe@viccaca.com for no charge first consultation.
