The ATO is changing payroll reporting.
Single Touch Payroll is a payroll reporting change for employers.
Employers with 20 or More Employees
As of 1 July 2018 employers with 20 or more employees will need to use Single Touch Payroll.
You will report payments such as salaries and wages, pay as you go (PAYG) withholding and superannuation information from your payroll solution each time you pay your employees.
Count the employees on your payroll as of 1 April to see if you need to get ready for Single Touch Payroll.
Employers with 19 or Less Employees
Single Touch Payroll will be expanded to include employers with 19 or less employees from 1 July 2019. This is subject to legislation being passed in parliament.
