A message from the ATO
What’s changing for you
There’s some additional information you will have to update and submit to the ATO before you are STP Phase 2 compliant. This includes:
- Update employee fields and ATO reporting categories (pay items)
- Complete the STP Phase 2 readiness check in your software:
Step 1 – check updated employee details meet ATO requirements
Step 2 – connect to the ATO - Report each pay run to the ATO (same as you normally would)
We’ll also run a check on your payroll information to make sure you haven’t missed anything before you move and start reporting on STP Phase 2. Learn more about how to get STP Phase 2 ready in your specific software:
What isn’t changing
Despite additional information being required in your STP Phase 2 report, there are many things that stay the same, such as:
- The way you lodge your STP report
- STP reports are still due on or before pay day unless you are eligible for a reporting concession
- The types of payments that are in-scope for STP reporting
- Taxation and superannuation obligations
- End of year finalisation requirements.
