BAS & GST FAQs
Got questions about business activity statements? We have answers.
Why should I use a Registered BAS Agent to lodge my BAS?
Lodging your BAS through a Registered BAS Agent like Alpha Taxlink grants your business extended lodgement and payment deadlines (usually an extra 4 weeks). Furthermore, we ensure all GST credits are properly claimed and prevent costly reporting errors.
What is the difference between BAS and IAS?
A Business Activity Statement (BAS) reports GST, PAYG withholding, PAYG instalments, and fringe benefits tax on a quarterly or monthly basis. An Instalment Activity Statement (IAS) is generally used by smaller businesses or monthly PAYG withholders to report PAYG tax instalments only.
How does Alpha Taxlink handle Single Touch Payroll (STP) and Superannuation?
We configure your cloud accounting software (Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks) for STP compliance, calculate employee superannuation contributions (Super Guarantee), and ensure timely lodgements before ATO penalty cutoffs.
What happens if I miss a BAS lodgement deadline?
Late BAS lodgement can incur Failure to Lodge (FTL) penalties from the ATO. If you fall behind, Alpha Taxlink can contact the ATO on your behalf to lodge overdue returns and request penalty waivers or payment arrangements.
