Comprehensive tax return preparation for sole traders, partnerships, companies, and trusts. We handle complex scenarios including multiple income streams, capital gains, and business expenses.

Online Tax Returns — Australia-Wide

You don't need to be in Melbourne. Our online tax return service lets you upload documents securely and have your return prepared remotely — ideal for interstate clients.

SMSF Tax Returns

Annual SMSF tax returns prepared in compliance with ATO requirements, coordinated with your fund audit and financial statements.

Amended Tax Returns

If you've lodged a tax return with errors or missed deductions, we can prepare and lodge an amended return with the ATO to recover what you're owed.

Prior Year Tax Returns

Behind on your tax returns? We help clients catch up on multiple years of outstanding returns, liaising with the ATO to minimise penalties.

Maximising Your Tax Deductions

Many Australians miss legitimate tax deductions each year. Our Melbourne tax accountants review your full financial picture to ensure you claim everything you're entitled to, including:

Work-related expenses (tools, uniforms, travel)
Home office deductions post-COVID
Self-education expenses
Investment property interest and depreciation
Capital losses to offset capital gains
Vehicle and car expense deductions
Charitable donations
Income protection insurance premiums
Professional development and memberships
Super contributions (concessional deductions)

Fast Turnaround & Extended Lodgement Dates

Optium Accountants clients benefit from our registered tax agent status, which provides extended ATO lodgement deadlines beyond the standard 31 October cutoff. This gives you more time to gather records without penalty.
