Understanding the service
We review covered employee records, wages and contributions for the relevant reporting period before coordinating the agreed filing.
Review the relevant payroll period
Check covered employee information, wage records and current contribution requirements. Record joins, exits and corrections with their supporting evidence. The employer should approve the schedule based on actual payroll rather than a copied total from a previous filing.
Keep submission and deposit evidence
Reconcile the prepared file to the contribution amount and retain the applicable acknowledgement and payment record. Identify pending adjustments separately. Accurate reporting supports the employer record, but it does not guarantee acceptance of any future employee claim.
Preparation checklist
Use this as a starting file, not a universal eligibility decision. ACS confirms the final checklist against your actual entity, activity and reporting period.
- Existing registration and account details
- Records for the reporting period
- Previous filings and acknowledgements
- Authorisation and supporting financial schedules
Keep originals and final versions distinguishable. Record missing information before submission and use the agreed private channel for sensitive evidence.
From enquiry to agreed work
- Share the requirement and relevant reporting period.
- ACS reviews the records and confirms the scope and charges.
- Preparation, review and authorised filing or delivery.
- Receive completion records and the next-step checklist.
A more consistent contribution record for covered employees. Timing depends on the supplied records, applicable process and external review. No authority decision or processing date is guaranteed.
ACS professional fee
Government fees, taxes, provider charges and additional professional work are separate unless the written quote says otherwise. The listed fee is not a grant, tax, contribution or licence payment. Online payments remain inactive.
Frequently asked questions
Is contribution money included in the ACS fee?
No. Contributions and any statutory additional charges remain separate.
Does one filing repair all historic employee errors?
Not automatically. Historical corrections need their own review and applicable process.
What does the listed professional fee include?
The ACS fee covers only the work confirmed in your quote. Government fees, taxes, provider or certification-body charges and additional professional work are separate unless expressly included. Booking does not activate an online payment.
What should I share for the first discussion?
Start with your requirement and the relevant period or project. The callback form needs only your name and mobile number. Share identity, banking or financial documents only through the agreed private workflow.
