ExploreCatch-up bookkeeping: your questions answered
How far behind can I be?
There's no limit. We regularly help businesses that are one to five years behind. The sooner we start, the sooner penalties and interest can be contained.
I've lost receipts – is that a problem?
Not necessarily. We work from bank statements, supplier portals and emailed invoices to rebuild records, and we'll tell you what's needed to support your claims.
Can you stop the ATO letters?
As your registered tax agent we can talk to the ATO for you, lodge outstanding returns, and request payment plans or lodgement deferrals where appropriate.
How long does a catch-up take?
It depends on volume, but most catch-ups are completed within two to six weeks once we have access to your records.
