Hi,
I am a registered BAS Agent and submit activity statements for my employer's clients taking advantage of the extended due dates for BAS Agents for quarterly returns.
I am also employed by another company with authorisation to lodge activity statements on their behalf. As an employee, I do not need to be a registered BAS Agent to do so.
My question is relating to the due date for a quarterly activity statement when both an employee and a registered BAS agent.
From the ATO website, the July to September BAS is due 28th October which would apply if I was just an employee,
If lodging online, there is an extra 2 weeks to lodge and pay the quarterly BAS, again as an employee.
As an employee who is also a registered BAS Agent, can I take advantage of the extra time to lodge and pay e.g. July to September due 25th November? I do not have my own practice or liability insurance as I am covered by my employer that is a practice or it is not needed as I am an employee.
When I log in to OSfA, I have 2 options, through the practice employer or as myself as a registered BAS Agent. Can I ask my employer to grant access through client to agent linking?
