Sadly, there’s no such thing as a job that falls neatly within the time frame of a month, quarter or sometimes even year. With so much to stay on top of, we know how difficult it can be to find the time or energy to deal with preparing and lodging your statements and taxes in time for necessary BAS, IAS and Tax lodgements. But at the same time, staying compliant and lodging on time is crucial to running a solid business.

Instead of hoping you or your partner will find the time in your busy days to prepare statements, we recommend outsourcing to a team that know what they’re doing. Making mistakes can be costly, and let’s be honest – there’s a high chance you’re making one if you’re preparing your lodgements after hours.

We work closely with your software, documentation and accountant, giving them access to everything recorded throughout the year. Come tax time, we can easily prepare your BAS, IAS or final EOFY statements for you – and directly liaise with your accountant, virtually eliminating any time on your end to handle lodgements.

On top of this, we can assist you on communicating with the ATO, arrange payment plans and even get you more time for late lodgements. Our promise to you is that each of your returns will be accurate, and you’ll never have to stress about compliancy and paperwork.

Remove the hassle of making sure your staff and contractors are paid on time!

JCG Projects Testimonial

I can not recommend Olivia and the team at Gecko Bookkeeping enough.
