Tax Time

  • ATO General interest charges are no longer tax-deductible. 

From 1 July 2025, interest charged by the ATO for late payments or underpayments will no longer be tax deductible.  

  • Super Guarantee (SG), from 1 July 2025, will increase to 12%. 

Message from the ATO. ‘The 12% rate will need to be applied for all salary and wages paid to eligible workers on and after 1 July. This is even if some or all of the pay period it relates to is before 1 July. This is the final scheduled increase’. 

Don’t hesitate, contact Blackburn Accounting if you have any questions or concerns regarding these changes or enquiries about other taxation matters.
