Online Tax Return · Australia-Wide Support
Start your individual tax return online with Hamro Accountant Brisbane. Use our quote calculator to estimate your preparation fee, generate a Quote ID, then continue through a clear accountant-supported process without needing to visit an office.
The calculator provides an estimated preparation fee based on the selections you enter. Your final fee can change if the actual work is materially different from the information selected in the calculator.
Yes. Hamro Accountant can support an individual tax return remotely. You can start with the online quote calculator, provide the information needed for the return, communicate with our team remotely, review the prepared return and authorise lodgement without relying on an in-office appointment for every step.
Prefer a phone-based process instead?The online pathway is useful when you want to start in your own time, understand the likely preparation fee early and keep the process moving without arranging a face-to-face appointment first.
Begin the process from home, work or another location using your computer, tablet or phone.
The calculator asks about the types of income and complexity relevant to your return so you can see an estimated service fee before moving further.
The online workflow connects to a professional tax-return engagement rather than leaving you to interpret every tax issue yourself.
Your return is prepared from the information provided and the applicable tax records, then reviewed with the required client authorisation before lodgement.
A salary-only return is different from ABN income, rideshare work, investment property or share and crypto disposals. The online process starts by identifying what actually applies to you rather than assuming every return has the same level of work.

Click START PERSONAL TAX RETURN after your quote to fill out your personal details, income and deductions so your accountant understands your tax situation.
Email us any remaining documents regarding your income and expenses that form part of your tax return.
Securely settle your account balance so our team can immediately begin preparing your final tax position.
We will discuss your tax position with you, answer any questions and send the final return for your digital signature.
Once authorised, your completed return is officially lodged through the registered tax agent process.
The quote calculator is the starting point. Generating a Quote ID does not itself lodge a tax return with the ATO and does not guarantee a refund amount or ATO processing timeframe.
Protect Your Privacy: As a registered tax agent, we access the ATO directly through our professional portal. We will never ask for your myGov login details, and you should never share them with anyone.
You do not need to upload your full tax file just to see the estimated preparation fee. Start by knowing the broad shape of your return.
Which tax year you want to lodge
Your broad whole-year income range
The income types that applied to you
Whether you had work-related deduction categories
Approximate share/crypto disposal volume, if relevant
Number of investment properties, if relevant

The ATO receives information from employers, financial institutions, government agencies and other third parties, and some of that information can be available to registered tax agents through ATO systems.
Pre-filled information still needs to be checked. It may not include every item, may arrive at different times, and does not automatically identify every deduction or private/business-use adjustment relevant to you.
For example, some employment, bank and government information may already be reported to the ATO.
Receipts, calculations, business records and property or investment records may still be required.
Pre-fill should be reviewed against your actual circumstances before lodgement.
You do not need every item below. Use the categories that actually apply to your return and keep the supporting evidence for the claims you make.
The ATO generally requires written evidence for deductions to be kept for 5 years from the date you lodge the tax return, although different or longer periods can apply in some circumstances, including certain depreciating assets and capital gains tax records.
A deduction still needs to satisfy the normal tax rules. For many work-related expenses, that means you paid the expense yourself, were not reimbursed, the expense directly relates to earning your income, and you have the required records.
If an expense is partly private, only the work-related or income-producing portion may be relevant. The online process should make the return easier to complete — not turn every expense into a deduction.
The expense must be yours rather than an amount fully reimbursed by someone else.
The required connection with your employment or income-producing activity must exist.
Keep the evidence or calculations required for the type of deduction claimed.
Mixed private and work use can require a reasonable apportionment.
Your quote request only needs enough information to calculate and identify the quote. Highly sensitive information should only be provided when it is genuinely required for the tax engagement and through the appropriate process.
Both options are designed to connect you with Hamro Accountant. The difference is mainly how you prefer to start and communicate.
A good fit when you want to start digitally, calculate an estimated fee first and provide the required information through the online process.
A better fit when you would rather begin by speaking with the team and work through the process with phone-based guidance.
The purpose of the online workflow is to make it easier to begin, provide information and keep the return moving — while still giving your tax situation the professional review required for the agreed service.
Why choose Hamro AccountantUnderstand the estimated preparation fee from the selections you make.
The calculator does not replace review of the information relevant to your return.
Communicate remotely without needing an office visit for every step.
The answers below explain the online workflow in general. Your actual return depends on the information, records and tax rules relevant to your circumstances.
No. The Quote ID relates to the quote request and estimated preparation fee. The tax return still requires the relevant client information, records, accountant review and required authorisation before lodgement.
It is an estimate based on the selections entered into the calculator. If the actual return involves materially different income types, complexity or additional work, the final service fee may differ and the scope or estimate may need to be updated.
Yes. The online process is designed for remote support and can be used by clients elsewhere in Australia, subject to the service being suitable for the tax matter involved.
Online preparation does not remove normal substantiation rules. Where written evidence is required for a deduction, you should keep the relevant records. The ATO generally requires written evidence for deductions to be retained for five years from lodgement, with different periods applying in some circumstances.
No. ATO pre-fill can contain useful third-party information, but it still needs to be checked and may not contain every item relevant to your return. Your own records remain important for completeness and deductions.
No. Selecting an expense category does not automatically make the expense deductible. The relevant deduction rules, work or income-producing connection, private-use apportionment and record requirements still need to be satisfied.
No fixed refund amount should be assumed from a quote or online estimate. The tax outcome depends on your complete income, deductions, offsets, liabilities and other circumstances, together with the applicable tax law and ATO processing.
