IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR CONTRACTORS IN THE BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

The ATO will compare this information with the income you have included in your tax return.

Make sure you:

• lodge your 2012-13 tax return by the due date and include all your income
• lodge any prior years’ tax returns as soon as possible
• consider making a voluntary disclosure if you think you have made a mistake in a previously lodged tax return. Where you voluntarily advise the ATO of any errors or omissions, any penalties that apply may be reduced.

If your tax obligations are not up to date or you choose to do nothing, you could be subject to a review or audit and may face penalties.
