This intensive 1 Day workshop gives you a beginner-to-intermediate understanding of Australia’s GST audit, assessment, and dispute landscape. The content focuses on how the ATO initiates GST audits, common exposure areas identified during BAS reviews, how GST assessments and penalty decisions are made, and the steps required for objections and escalation to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT).

You also learn how to strengthen internal GST controls, identify compliance gaps, prepare documentation for ATO reviews, understand GST adjustments, correct errors, and build audit-ready systems to reduce future risk. Real examples are used throughout the session to help you apply the concepts in real business environments.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

• Understand ATO approaches to GST audits and compliance verification.
• Prepare accurate documentation for GST audit and BAS review processes.
• Identify common GST credit and reporting errors that trigger penalties.
• Understand how assessments, amended assessments, and penalties are issued.
• Handle objections and prepare for AAT-level dispute resolution.
• Build internal GST controls to reduce exposure and audit risk.
• Develop a practical GST audit readiness and litigation strategy.

• Finance & accounting professionals
• Tax compliance teams
• Business owners, CFOs, and controllers
• Internal auditors & corporate compliance teams
• Anyone responsible for BAS preparation or GST decision-making

Why Choose this Course?

This course delivers practical GST audit and dispute handling skills, not theory. You learn real ATO processes, common audit pitfalls, and actionable defense strategies from professionals experienced in GST compliance, BAS reviews, and dispute management. The training avoids basics and focuses on what actually happens during ATO audits, assessments, objections, and AAT escalations.
