What to have ready for BAS time
Getting your records in order before BAS time reduces errors, speeds up preparation and helps avoid last-minute scrambling.

- Reconciled accounting records (Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks or spreadsheet)
- All sales invoices, including cash sales
- Supplier invoices and expense receipts

- Previous BAS statement for reference
- Fuel receipts, if claiming fuel tax credits
What if I am late?
Outstanding tax returns or overdue BAS are more common than you might think. The ATO does apply failure-to-lodge penalties and interest charges, but these are often reduced or remitted where there are genuine reasons for the delay — and where you take steps to get back on track promptly.
The most important thing you can do if you have overdue lodgements is act sooner rather than later. Ibex Tax Consultants can prepare and lodge outstanding returns, review your penalty position and support you through any ATO correspondence.
There is no judgement here — life gets in the way, and sorting things out is what matters.
