Strictly speaking, all tax returns are due for lodgment by 31 October each year, however, if you lodge through a tax agent, you will likely receive an extension to a later date. The date of extension will depend on several factors such as your lodgment history, how much income you reported on your previous tax return, and the type of entity your lodging a tax return for (if not an individual).

Most individuals who lodge through a tax agent, will have a lodgment date of 15 May the following year. We will be in touch regarding your specific lodgment date.
