Frequently Asked Questions About Payroll Services & SMSF Setup
Got questions? We’ve answered the most common ones below to help you move forward with confidence.
Do I need payroll services if I only have one employee?
Yes. Even one employee requires correct payslips, tax withholdings, superannuation, and STP reporting. We ensure everything is handled correctly from the first pay cycle onward.
What is Single Touch Payroll (STP) and do I need it?
STP is a mandatory ATO reporting system that requires businesses to report employee wages, PAYG withholding, and super in real time. We set this up for you and ensure you’re always compliant.
How often are payroll tax and superannuation due?
Super is generally due quarterly, and payroll tax depends on your state and wage threshold. We schedule and lodge all requirements on your behalf to ensure timely submissions.
Can you help with employee onboarding and record keeping?
Yes. We manage TFN declarations, super choices, Fair Work compliance, and setup within your payroll system. Accurate employee records reduce risk and streamline administration.
What does SMSF setup involve?
We handle deed creation, registration (ABN/TFN), trustee structuring, and ATO compliance. We also connect you with partners for auditing, financial planning, or investment structuring if needed.
Is an SMSF right for me?
If you want control over your super investments and have time to manage it (or a trusted advisor to help), an SMSF could suit you. We’ll help you weigh the pros and cons before proceeding.
Do you provide ongoing SMSF compliance services?
Yes. We provide ongoing accounting, tax lodgement, and reporting for SMSFs, ensuring compliance with annual audit and ATO obligations.
