Accountants for tech businesses and consultants.

The Gold Coast’s quiet tech corridor — software firms, agencies and senior contractors — has its own tax shape: PSI rules, R&D claims and structures that need to survive growth. That shape is ours.

Book a Free Consultation

Contractors and consultants meet the personal services income rules early: whether income can rest in a company or is attributed to you personally decides most of the planning. Product businesses layer on R&D tax incentive eligibility, cloud-heavy cost structures, and eventually investment or acquisition — where clean books and a sensible structure are the difference between a smooth deal and a discounted one.

We test PSI properly against real contracts, prepare conservative R&D claims with the records to survive review, and keep the structure one step ahead of the growth.

FAQ

Tech & Consultants questions, answered

I contract through a company — is that enough to avoid PSI?

No, the structure alone decides nothing. The results test, the unrelated-clients test and how you actually work determine whether income is attributed to you personally. We test it against your contracts and set the payroll accordingly — guessing invites both back-tax and penalties.

Is our development work eligible for the R&D tax incentive?

If it involved genuine technical uncertainty resolved through systematic experimentation, it may be — routine builds are not. Companies under $20M turnover can access the 43.5% refundable offset (as at August 2026), with registration due within 10 months of year end. We assess honestly and say no when records will not support a claim.

What should we fix before raising or selling?

The things due diligence always finds: revenue recognition, founder loans, contractor classification, unpaid super and a structure that makes the sale taxable in the worst possible way. Six months of tidy-up beforehand routinely pays for itself in price and speed — we run the same due diligence lens buyers will.
