It’s tax season, baby 🤑 🏦 😭 🙏⁠ ⁠ Small businesses have unique tax needs, depending on their structure and income.⁠ ⁠ For example, sole traders like freelancers may just need to file their individual tax return 💸 (Plus their BAS if they need to pay GST 🎉)⁠ ⁠ Small businesses with employees, however, usually file a company tax return 🗓️ This is because the business is now a distinct legal entity. Company tax returns have different due dates and reporting obligations.⁠ ⁠ Need tax advice? See a tax agent! Every business is different when it comes to taxes, so they can help you file correctly and on time while maximising your eligible deductions 👏 😄⁠ ⁠ Link in bio to learn more 🔗 ✨
