November 9, 2019Universal Taxation Services — Your One-Stop Solution for Accounting, Taxation, and Finance
October 4, 2023The annual tax return lodgment is one of those obligations that often comes with a mix of dread, anticipation, and plenty of questions. For many, the most pressing question is, “When can I lodge my tax return for 2023?” This blog aims to answer that, guiding you from the basics to more advanced details.
Basic: Understanding Tax Return Deadlines
For individuals lodging their own tax returns for the fiscal year, the deadline is typically 31 October 2023. However, this date may vary if you’re lodging through a tax agent or if there are other specific circumstances related to your tax affairs.
Advanced: Benefits of Early Lodgment and Potential Extensions
- Early Bird Benefits: Lodging your tax return earlier can mean receiving your tax refund sooner. If you’re expecting money back, this can be an incentive to get your paperwork sorted out as soon as the new financial year begins.
- Extensions through Tax Agents: Registered tax agents, like Universal Taxation Services, often have extensions that allow their clients to lodge later than the 31 October deadline, sometimes even up until 15 May of the following year. This gives you more time to gather all necessary information and ensure your return is accurate.
- Avoid Penalties: By lodging on time, you avoid potential late lodgment penalties. If you expect to owe money, it’s even more crucial to lodge on time to prevent both late payment penalties and interest.
