23.01.2022 As a mum who is also a tax accountant, I feel like I am always giving this advice out to young people. Feel free to share this out with anyone who you think it may help - even if they are not that young or new to tax. There is a lot of misunderstanding of the Australian Tax System and hopefully this helps explain it a little.
22.01.2022 A welcome to change to the JobKeeper was announced last night. It will take the pressure off a lot of businesses and tax agents as well.

Stay tuned for Michael's blo...g on the JobKeeper scheme that he wrote at 1am this morning. We accountants lead such exciting lives!

09.01.2022 It is a big day for Jigsaw today, not only is it a New Financial Year, it is our 12th birthday and the end of an era with Kay Rudd now officially the owner of J...igsaw Plan Management and no longer working for Jigsaw Tax. The time for celebration will be brief as we head into an incredibly busy Tax Time, while also helping our clients to manage the next round of stimulus money. Happy New Financial Year to everyone, Happy Birthday to us and best wishes to Kay. Fortunately she will be running Jigsaw Plan Management from our Goulburn office so we still get to see her, otherwise we would all be emotional wrecks today. See more
