2. Register for selected business services, update ABN details if notified whilst your application is still progressing, cancel your ABN if you desire (this doesn’t automatically lead to a refund), and contact you in the future for other services that are useful to you.

 

APPLICATION REJECTION:

If the ATO rejects your application for any reason, we will analyse it and, if practical, look for suitable solutions. Until you receive your ABN, we will also keep you informed and up to date and post that resign as your tax agent. The ATO may have rejected your application for a variety of reasons. These could consist of, but are not limited to:

1. The information provided does not exactly match the data that the ATO has on file. 

2. You are not permitted to apply for GST registration, according to the ATO, or there are system processing problems, like system outages or maintenance, at the moment.

3. You have asked us to proceed with your ABN registration without having a TFN. 

No refunds are provided for applications that are rejected by the ATO. In some cases, we may assist you in filing your application again.

If you have opted for a registration service in the application form, however, have not completed the payment for it, it will not be registered for you. However, we will contact you to confirm the registration and give you the option to complete the payment process.

PROCESSING TIME: As soon as you submit your registration applications to us, we get to work on them within the next 5 hours. Our business hours are 8 am-7 pm, if you registered after 7 pm, your application might be queued and processed the following day. 

 

SYSTEM UNDER MAINTENANCE: The ATO registration system, ABR, ASIC. Business registration payment services or the ABN lookup tool can sometimes be under scheduled/unscheduled maintenance (especially on weekends). Whilst we make every effort to process your registrations at the earliest possible, due to registration systems being under maintenance there might be a significant delay. As we are unable to control this, it violates our promise to have your registration completed within the 5 hours.

 

MANUAL REVIEWS: The business registration services post submission to the ATO/ABR or ASIC can be flagged for manual review by the Australian government. This is entirely at the discretion of the Australian Government and there is not much we can do to influence it or expedite it. As per ATO guidelines, manual reviews can take up to 21 business days.

FUTURE COMMUNICATION: We might contact you in the future to promote our other services that are deemed by us to be useful to you. 

Specific to ABN registration services​

If you have previously obtained an ABN number that is still active and have registered a new ABN application with us, we will update your ABN information and replace all previous ABN information with the most recent ABN information.

If you previously held an ABN that has been cancelled, the same process and fees are applicable as applying for a new ABN. 

 Specific to Business Name registration services

If the desired business name and submitted options are not available, we will notify you and request you to submit additional business name options. No additional fee will be charged in this scenario. 

In the instance that we have received your Business Name application, started processing it and your desired business names are not available, you can either:

• pick a different name, 

• or request a refund, less the AUD $45 administration and handling fee (Administration Charge). After submission, there will be no return of the Business Name price for change of heart.

Business Name registrations once submitted to the ABR/ASIC/ATO cannot be updated or cancelled due to change of mind or heart. This is applicable even if your business name registration is under manual review and hasn’t been approved yet. If you decide to abandon or cancel the business name once registered, no refunds are provided by us or the ASIC. 

The ASIC business names register is a requirement for availability checks of business names conducted through the website's business name application form (ASIC Register). If the ASIC Register or its system is having technical problems, such as outage or maintenance, we are not liable for any inaccuracies or omissions therein. In the unlikely event that the ASIC Register is unavailable, we can manually submit your Business Name application. In these situations, we cannot check the ASIC Register to see if your Business Name is available if we manually submit your Business Name application.

Specific to GST registration services

When you opt for GST registration, you automatically grant us the permission to serve as your BAS agents for this reason in order to apply for GST on your behalf. This might require us to contact the ATO on your behalf.
