Tax planning through the year
Filing is only half the job. Our tax accountants in Auckland help you get on top of your taxes during the year by implementing tax-saving opportunities and preparing for rule changes before the new tax year starts. That means fewer surprises at year end and time to act while it still makes a difference.
Provisional tax
If your last return left you with more than $5,000 of residual income tax, you pay provisional tax in instalments. We work out which method suits your business and remind you before each due date. Our provisional tax guide explains the dates and methods.
Why use tax accountants instead of filing yourself
Tax rules change every year, and mistakes cost money in interest, penalties or missed deductions. A tax accountant knows what can be claimed, how drawings and shareholder loans are treated, and when a structure is costing you tax. Our article on deemed dividends shows how easily this goes wrong.
One team for books, accounts and tax
Because our bookkeeping and accounting teams keep your records, your tax accountants work from numbers that are already accurate. Nothing is handed between firms and nothing is entered twice.
