If you run a business which provides any of the following services and you pay a contractor to provide them on your behalf, you may need to lodge a TPAR:

  • building and construction
  • cleaning
  • courier and road freight
  • information technology (IT)
  • security, investigation and surveillance.

TPARs ensure that contractors report all their income.

On your TPAR, you need to record the:

  • contractor’s name,
  • address
  • ABN
  • total amount you paid them for the previous financial year – including any GST and cash payments.

You can find these details on your contractors’ invoices. It’s the same information you use to claim income tax deductions through your tax return, and GST credits through your business activity statement.

There are various methods to lodge TPAR such as via the ATO online portal (these payments are now appearing on the ATO prefills), via your business software or via your registered tax professional such as your local TaxAssist Accountant who can lodge on your behalf.

Remember - penalties may apply if you don’t lodge your TPAR by 28 August!
