If you pay wages, directors' fees or suppliers with no ABN, you have PAYG withholding obligations — and getting them wrong can deny the wages deduction entirely under s26-105. We check you're registered, withholding correctly, and meeting your STP deadlines.

Questions
What is Single Touch Payroll (STP)?
STP is the system for reporting payroll to the ATO each pay run. You also have to make a finalisation declaration after year end — generally by 14 July — so employees' income statements are marked “tax ready”.
What is s26-105?
It's the rule that can deny your deduction for a payment to a worker or contractor where you were required to withhold PAYG and didn't. The cost of getting withholding wrong isn't just the tax — it can be the whole deduction.
Is this tax advice?
No. It's general information that surfaces what to raise with your registered tax agent or bookkeeper.
