Justified trust & GST: Staying ahead of the ATO’s GST assurance program

By:Sue Zhao

On-demand presentation

Practical advice on what the ATO expects from corporates and how Wolters Kluwer can help you stay ahead and meet your GST reporting obligations.

The ATO’s Justified Trust program has brought GST to the forefront with large corporates in Australia. The program seeks greater assurance that large corporate taxpayers are reporting the right amount of GST. In 2020-2021, the ATO reported it “raised $2.3 billion in liabilities through client engagement activities”. This success only strengthens the ATO’s mandate to rapidly ramp up the GST assurance program, putting tax teams under continued pressure to get their house in order.

This 45-minute on-demand session will provide you with a practical overview of the ATO’s GST justified trust assurance reviews. Presented by Sue Zhao - Enterprise Software Product Owner at Wolters Kluwer, she will provide advice on how you can bolster your organisation’s tax governance to assist you in staying ahead of the ATO’s tax data control requirements.
