Single Touch Payroll changed the way Australian employers report to the ATO. Instead of submitting payment summaries at the end of the year, you now report wages, tax, and superannuation information to the ATO every single time you process payroll. It's a tighter system with less room for error, and if your STP reporting isn't set up correctly, those errors go straight to the ATO in real time.
At OzLedger, we set up and manage your STP reporting so every submission is accurate, timely, and fully compliant with current ATO requirements.
STP errors go straight to the ATO in real time.
What This Service Covers
Our STP reporting service covers setup through to year-end finalisation:
- Initial STP setup and registration with the ATO
- Payroll software configured for compliant reporting
- Submission of STP data each pay run
- STP Phase 2 disaggregated income reporting
- End-of-year finalisation for myGov income statements
- Correction of STP errors or rejected submissions
Why Getting STP Right Matters
Errors report directly to the ATO
Unlike older payroll systems where mistakes might sit unnoticed in your records until year end, STP errors go to the ATO immediately. Getting the setup right from the start prevents problems down the track.
Phase 2 added significant complexity
STP Phase 2 introduced disaggregated income reporting, meaning you now need to separately report salary, allowances, overtime, and leave. Many businesses are still not fully compliant. We make sure yours is.
Your employees benefit too
With correct STP reporting, your employees can see their year-to-date income and tax information in myGov at any time, and their income statements are ready at tax time without you having to issue payment summaries.
