Understanding the service
We review your legal structure, registration orders, accounts and past filings, then make a practical list of routine, annual and event-based work.
Build obligations around your entity
A trust, society and Section 8 company do not share an identical filing list. Map the legal registration, tax approvals, funding conditions and employment obligations that actually apply. Assign an owner and a supporting record to each task rather than using a generic calendar copied from another NGO.
Keep evidence of completion
A useful compliance register includes the period, obligation, submission date, acknowledgement and next review date. Mark pending work explicitly. Board or trustee decisions, accounts and grant reports should tell a consistent story; discrepancies are easier to resolve while the records are fresh.
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.
- Applicant or entity identification
- Existing registration records, if applicable
- Address and authorised signatory details
- Service-specific documents confirmed after review
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.
One coordinated work plan with clear owners and the most urgent tasks first. 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
Does an annual package include every obligation?
Only the work expressly included in the written quote. Audit, tax, registrar, employment and grant obligations may require separate engagements.
Can an inactive NGO ignore all filings?
Do not assume that no activity means no obligations. Review the legal structure, registration conditions and period with an adviser.
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.
