COMMON QUESTIONS
Your SMSF Compliance & Auditing Questions, Answered.
Everything you need to know about SMSF compliance and independent audits. Can't find your answer? Call us on 02 9138 8800 or email [email protected]
Question 1: How often does my SMSF need to be audited?
Every SMSF must be audited annually by an approved SMSF auditor before the fund's annual return is lodged with the ATO. There are no exceptions — it is a mandatory legal requirement.
Question 2: Can my existing accountant conduct the audit?
No. The ATO requires the audit to be conducted by an independent, approved SMSF auditor who has no financial or personal relationship with the fund's trustees. This is a strict independence requirement.
Question 3:What happens if my SMSF is found to be non-compliant?
The consequences can be serious — including tax penalties, fund disqualification, or loss of concessional tax status. The good news is most compliance issues can be rectified if identified early. We manage this entire process for you.
Question 4: How long does an SMSF audit take?
For a well-maintained fund with clean records, the audit is typically completed within 5–10 business days. We guide you through exactly what documentation is needed upfront to make it straightforward.
