A big tax refund isn’t always a great news for you

A large tax refund may feel like free money, but it isn’t. During 2015-16, ATO has refunded close to $28b to individuals. Many tax refund recipients are putting that money to work. Some taxpayers getting a refund expect to save or invest the money, while others may use the money to pay down the debt.
Here’s the bad news: If the ATO sends you a huge check, it means you’ve likely overpaid on taxes throughout the year.

AVS Business Services have been our Accountant for couple of years now. This technical expertise coupled with personalised service is an excellent combination. I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for an accountant.
