Tax & thresholds in VIC

What Melbourne's numbers mean for your business.

VIC businesses cross the payroll-tax threshold at ~$900k (then 4.85%) — worth planning for as you grow. Victorian land tax cuts in at a low $50k land-value threshold, plus the COVID-debt levy on larger holdings. With a median household income near $98,800, this is where a reviewed return commonly finds deductions a rushed one misses.

Questions

Common questions about a Melbourne tax return.

How much does a tax return cost? +
It depends on complexity — a single W-2 return is far cheaper than a return with business income, rentals, or investments. We quote a fixed fee for your Melbourne return before any work begins.
Tax agent vs DIY myTax? +
myTax works for simple situations, but a registered tax agent often finds deductions you'd miss, handles complexity, and gives you until May to lodge. For anything beyond a basic return, an agent usually pays for itself.
Can you lodge late returns? +
Yes — we help Melbourne clients lodge prior-year and overdue returns, and can liaise with the ATO on outstanding lodgements. The sooner they're brought up to date, the lower the risk of penalties.
When is my tax return due? +
If you lodge yourself, returns are generally due 31 October. If you use a registered tax agent and are on their lodgement program, you usually have until May the following year. We manage the deadline for you.
How quickly can you get started? +
Usually within a few days of your first call. We'll confirm what we need, agree a fixed fee, and get moving — many Melbourne clients are set up the same week.
Do you work with businesses in Melbourne? +
Yes — we work with individuals and businesses across Melbourne and the surrounding area, both in person and remotely.
What documents do I need to provide? +
Usually income statements, expense and receipt records, prior-year returns, and any investment or business documents. We provide a checklist so Melbourne clients know exactly what's needed.
Do you offer fixed-fee pricing? +
Yes — we quote a fixed fee up front before any work begins, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
Can you work remotely or do I need to visit? +
Both — we work with Melbourne clients entirely remotely (secure document upload, phone, video) or in person if you prefer.
How do you keep my data secure? +
We use secure, encrypted document handling and strict access controls, and only share your information where required to do the work.
Do you handle prior-year (late) returns? +
Yes — we help Melbourne clients lodge prior-year and overdue returns and can liaise with the ATO on outstanding lodgements.
Are you registered? +
Returns are lodged by a registered tax agent (Tax Practitioners Board).
