Recommendations for an accountant in Sydney

[cluster13 155]

Hi. We are looking to complete or first Oz tax return but would like to use an accountant to make sure we claim and declare everything we need to. We have Uk rental properties ( all Uk tax returns completed for last April) and have changed from temp to perm in the last 12 months. Does anyone have experience with or can recommend someone preferably in the south Sydney region.

Thanks

Steve

This is the email address for my Tax Agent in Elizabeth St, Surry Hills, next door to Pizza Hut I think. He has done my last two or three returns and seems to be on the ball.

 

I went to him simply because he was just down the road from my unit.

H&R Block are ok, they have loads of offices.

In my experience clients have come to us from H&R Block because of a lack of understanding of some of the international tax issues attaching to new migrants => ask pertinent questions before engaging them.

I'm interested in any advice here. I've recently done my own Aus tax returns on line. I used H&RB before and found then a bit ill informed with UK/Aus issues (I have a UK based rental property).

 

I've come into a bit of cash recently in the UK which short term presents me with potential CGT issues in the UK which I'm unsure of, as well as how to invest going forward (don't want to transfer funds to Aus at current exchange rate).

 

I'm therefore looking for a Sydney based tax/financial advisor who knows and understands the tax systems in both the UK and Australia who can advise me accordingly.

Siddals - not used them but they claim to be experts in this area. Not sure that you need specialist advice on 457 as tax returns submitted independent of each other .

* No office in Australia it seems.

 

* I believe they are financial advisors, not tax accountants (happy to be corrected on this point).

 

* No need for specialist tax advice on a 457 visa? Tell that to 457 visaholders who have had indifferent advice from tax advisors who are not across the special tax status of temporary visaholders who are residing in Australia ...

 

Best regards.
