Registered tax agent — Brisbane · Australia-wide
Anyone can prepare a tax return. We prepare the proof behind it.
TaxProof is a Brisbane-based tax practice that builds the evidence behind every figure it lodges — for clients in every Australian state. If the ATO asks tomorrow, everything can be proven.

Why proof
Most accountants help you lodge. We help you withstand review.
A tax return is one page of numbers. The ATO does not review the page — it reviews what sits behind it. Most returns are prepared to be lodged. Ours are prepared to be examined: every income figure reconciled to source, every deduction substantiated before it is claimed, every position documented.
That discipline costs nothing extra when it is built in from the start. It is only expensive when it is missing — assembled in a hurry, years later, under a review deadline. We build the file as we prepare the return, so the day the ATO asks is an ordinary day.
The 8 proofs
Eight proofs behind every engagement
Every TaxProof engagement builds the same eight proofs. They are the file that answers when the ATO asks.
Proof of income
Every income figure reconciled to source — payroll, bank, platform and broker records on file.
Proof of expenses
Each deduction substantiated before it is claimed. Receipts, logbooks and apportionment records — not estimates.
Proof of GST
BAS figures traced to the ledger. Every GST credit backed by a valid tax invoice.
Proof of compliance
Registrations, thresholds and lodgment obligations mapped, met and evidenced.
Proof of record keeping
Records structured to ATO standards and retained for the statutory period — retrievable on request.
Proof of due diligence
Positions checked against current law and rulings before lodgment. The reasoning is documented.
Proof for ATO review or audit
If the ATO asks, the file answers. Evidence assembled and indexed, ready to present.
Proof of professional advice
Advice in writing from a registered tax agent — a documented, defensible basis for every position.
