About This Service

Professional ATO Representation When You Need It Most

An unexpected letter from the ATO can trigger real anxiety, especially when it involves a debt, audit, review, or penalty notice. Many people either ignore the correspondence — which often makes things worse — or respond without proper guidance and risk saying the wrong thing.

AAD Taxation’s liaising service places a registered tax agent between you and the ATO, acting as your authorised representative throughout the process. We carefully review and interpret your correspondence, advise on the best course of action, draft formal responses, attend phone discussions, negotiate payment plans, request penalty remissions, and manage objections on your behalf.

We handle ATO matters every day, understand how the system works, and communicate effectively on our clients’ behalf to achieve the best legitimate outcome in each case.

AAD Taxation got me a refund I never knew I was entitled to. Professional, quick, and explained everything in plain English. They found deductions my previous accountant completely missed. Absolutely outstanding!

As a small business owner, BAS and payroll was a nightmare. AAD took everything off my plate and the fixed pricing means no surprises. Their team responds within hours — incredible service, highly recommended.

Raj M.

I had 3 overdue tax returns and was terrified of the ATO. AAD sorted everything, negotiated my penalties down, and set up a payment plan. Now I’m fully up to date. They literally saved me thousands!

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about ATO audits, debt, penalties, and how our registered tax agents can help.

Can a tax agent legally represent me with the ATO?

Yes. Registered tax agents are legally authorised to act on your behalf in all dealings with the ATO, including audits, objections and debt negotiations.

What should I do if I receive an ATO audit letter?

Contact us immediately. Do not respond directly to the ATO without professional advice. The way you respond to an audit notice matters significantly.

What happens if I can’t pay my ATO debt?

Yes, the ATO has significant debt recovery powers. However, there are processes to pause this action. Contact us as soon as possible if you’re facing ATO debt action.

What is an ATO payment plan and how do I get one?

A payment plan lets you pay your tax debt in instalments rather than a lump sum. We negotiate payment plan terms with the ATO on your behalf.

How long does an ATO audit typically take?

Simple audits can be resolved in weeks. More complex cases involving significant amounts or multiple years can take several months. We guide you through every stage.

Can I request a remission of ATO penalties?

Yes. Voluntary disclosure, especially through a registered tax agent is treated more favourably by the ATO and typically results in reduced penalties.

What if I genuinely can't afford to pay my tax debt?

We explore every option — payment plans, hardship provisions, penalty remission, and interest reduction. The ATO has formal processes for financial hardship and we guide you through each one.

Can you help with GST disputes as well as income tax?

Yes. We handle ATO correspondence and disputes across all tax types — income tax, GST, PAYG, FBT, and more.
