Hi,
We have used STP reporting for our employees' PAYGW. If the amount withheld hasn't been remitted to ATO, where can we see the outstanding balance? I can't see it on the ATO account summary (statement). What we have to do so that the payable amount is shown in the account summary?
Thanks.

Hi @Suwito,
That's great that you're all set up with STP.
When it comes to remitting the amounts to the ATO. If you are registered for PAYG withholding, you would report the withholding amounts on your activity statement.
If you have access to the business online services, you can lodge them online. When it is lodged, it will advise on how to make payment for those amounts.
We have a great page for PAYG withholding – how to complete your activity statement labels you may find helpful.

Hi Danielle,
Thanks for your response. However, since July 23, the company has been categorised as a large withholder. Field W1 and W2 for PAYGW information in are no longer available in the activity statement. So, we can't report the PAYGW amount in the activity statement anymore. Thus, no PAYGW payable shows in the ATO statement either.
And yes, the company has been registered for PAYG wihtholding.
Regards,
Suwito
