Common questions
A genuine commercial vehicle (like a one-tonne ute or a van with no rear seats) used mainly for work can often have its running costs claimed in full, with less strict logbook requirements. A dual-cab used privately as well needs apportioning. We'll confirm which category yours falls into so the claim stands up.
Most small plumbing businesses lodge quarterly, which is easier on cashflow and admin. Monthly can suit you if you're regularly in a GST refund position. We set the cycle that works for your cashflow and handle the lodgements.
If we don't make your financial life simpler, we part ways. No lock-in contracts, no risk.
