Our Superannuation Lawyers and Tax Solicitors have extensive experience assisting clients in preparing and lodging an Objection to a Notice of Assessment.
Generally speaking, individuals and small businesses have two years to object to an ATO notice of assessment and others have four years to object to a tax assessment. Both are timed from the date the notice would have been received by regular post. Other time limits apply in relation to particular categories of tax assessments.
An objection to a notice of assessment must be carefully drafted, describing, in detail, all disputed and challenged matters and all factual circumstances and legal grounds that the taxpayer relies on. The onus of proof lies with the taxpayer and it is not sufficient to simply state that an assessment is incorrect without proper and thorough justification. It is therefore vital that where you believe there to be an error in a notice of assessment issued to you, you seek legal representation from a skilled Tax Lawyer with experience in preparing and lodging objections.
Our Sydney Taxation Lawyers can advise you on the merits of your objection, draft, prepare and lodge your objection and liaise with the ATO. Our Sydney Tax Solicitors also have extensive experience in appealing against decisions of the ATO, providing full representation and advice throughout the process.
