Single Touch Payroll (STP) Reporting action before 1^st July 2018

What is Single Touch Payroll Reporting?

In general, Singe Touch Payroll aligns employer reporting obligation to your payroll process. Employers will be required to report to the ATO certain payroll information via Standard Business Reporting software integrated with employer’s payroll system or outsourced payroll provider’s system. That means employers need to report to ATO each time when they pay their employees.

The intention of STR is to improve data transition from employer to ATO. ATO will receive real data from employer and will be able to share those data with other government agency in real time.

When will STP Reporting start? What employer will be affected?

STP Reporting will start

• after 1^st Jul 2018 for business employ more than 20 people (counted on 1 April 2018 payroll)
• 1^st July 2019 for business employ less than 20 people

What do you need to do and what ANG can do for you?

Employers need to count employee on 1^st April 2018 (head count, and this including full time, part time, casual etc.). If you have more than 20 employees, you need to get ready for STP Reporting before 1^st July 2018.
