I have been using Jess from DriveTax to do my BAS statements and Tax Returns for at least 3 years now. Jess is so helpful and professional. I do and have recommended Jess and will continue to do so.

Rhonda, Shenton Park, WA

Jess at DriveTax offers both professional knowledge/advice, and great responsive service. She has made meeting my BAS & Tax obligations for Uber driving a breeze. Thanks, Jess!

Mark, St Kilda, Victoria

Very helpful and affordable. Jess is always willing to answer any questions you might have, and guide you through what can be a difficult process. Highly recommend this service.

Martin, Revesby, New South Wales

DriveTax is a great business. The service is beyond belief, so fast and efficient. Shout out to Jess who was in charge of my case, she sorted everything out within a day. I am speechless!! Will definitely continue to do business with them in the future as well as recommend to everyone. All the best to DriveTax.

Rainy, Sydney, New South Wales

It has been a great experience getting help from driveTax. DriveTax fully knows the needs of rideshare drivers. I will greatly recommend drivers to get their help and enjoy high class service in tax returns and BAS.

Anwar, Melbourne, Victoria

I have been using DriveTax over the last few years. Can I say that Jess is absolutely amaaazzziing! She is very knowledgeable in her field and always happy to answer my questions about tax. She handles the taxes for both my rideshare business and my rental properties and I have always been more than happy with the results of my tax returns. Her fees are also very reasonable. Kudos DriveTax!

Alvin, Rowville, Victoria

I have used Jess as a tax agent for a few years now. For those looking for a great rideshare tax agent she is the one to go to. But otherwise she is equally great as a tax agent even if you don’t do rideshare. Jess is easy to deal with, knows her tax legislation really well and is very responsive. Everything is done online sparing one the trouble of meeting in person or having to chase up over the phone.

Adnan, Tarneit, Victoria

Jess has just done my tax for the second year. As last year it was a seamless exercise. She had no problem answering my dumb questions. Return was processed earlier than predicted. 5 STAR rating once again.

Greg, Morisset, New South Wales

It is just so easy doing business with Jess at drive tax. Jess has tax time for rideshare completely worked out. Time saved with her system means more worry-free hours on the road making money. Follow her advice and guidance and you will find tax time a non-event for you. She really has made it so easy.

Richard, Beldon, Western Australia

By far the best accountant I have ever been associated. Nothing is too much trouble and Jess’s advice is always accurate and candid. Thanks again, Jess.

Kelly, Kallangur, Queensland

Extremely professional, reliable and easy to work with. She has probably saved me thousands of dollars over the past few years that I would have otherwise missed had I lodged my own returns. Highly recommend!

Alex, Sydney, New South Wales

Just did my first BAS using Drive Tax and it was so simple. Definitely recommend getting this to help make it an easy process.

Kris, Epsom, Victoria

Here’s how Express BAS works:

  1. Gather your Monthly Tax Summaries from all the companies you drive for.
  2. Add up your expenses for the quarter into totals per category (take a peek at the Express BAS form now to see the categories and help you prepare).
  3. Head to the Express BAS form via the links above, upload your Monthly Tax Summaries, and enter your expenses.
  4. At the end of the form you’ll make payment via credit card or PayPal
  5.  Your BAS will be personally processed by Jess Murray CPA within two business days. If Jess has any questions or suggested extra claims she will be in touch via email.
  6. Once complete, your BAS is lodged to the ATO and you’ll receive a copy via email. If you have to pay the ATO we’ll send you the payment details, or if you have a GST refund the ATO will deposit it directly in your bank account.

Our fee for BAS lodgment is $99.

Every BAS is personally prepared and lodged by CPA accountant and rideshare tax expert Jess Murray (no off-shore or AI-prepared BAS’s here!) so you can be confident every GST claim is maximised.

If you lodge all of your BAS’s for the financial year with DriveTax you’ll also get a 10% discount on your end of year tax return.

You will need your Monthly Tax Summaries for Uber and any other companies you drive for, and have them ready to upload. You will also need all of your expenses totals for the quarter, but you do not need to send us your receipts or records. Just file them safely at home in case the ATO requests to see them. If you bought a car during the financial year you will need to upload the tax invoice too.

Read more about the receipts and records you need to keep here.

Late Uber Summaries – Uber are sometimes very slow to issue their monthly summaries, but they have always come through in time every quarter. So if there’s still more than a week to go until the BAS deadline, please be patient and it will usually come through. If you’re lodging your own BAS and don’t have the monthly summaries by the due date you will need to contact the ATO for an extension. or if you plan to lodge through DriveTax and it’s one week out from the final lodgment due date, please email us for instructions.  

If your BAS is past its due date that’s okay, you can still use the Express BAS form for BAS’s from earlier quarters. You’ll find a dropdown box in the first section of the form that asks which quarter you want to lodge for.

It’s always best to lodge your BAS’s as soon as possible even if you’re not in a position to pay right away. The ATO are usually happy to set up a payment arrangement, and in the meantime you’ll avoid a late lodgment history and potential late fines.

If you have four or more BAS’s to lodge, please contact us via email instead of using the Express BAS form. We offer a discount of 20% if you need to lodge four or more BAS’s, 30% if you need to lodge six or more, and so forth, but these discounts are only available via email.

If you have GST to pay we will send your ATO payment details together with your completed BAS. You can pay the ATO via credit card or Bpay, and the payment due date is the same as your BAS lodgment due date. 

If you’re not in a position to pay your tax bill by the due date it is very easy to set up a payment arrangement via your MyGov, or by calling the ATO. You will generally have to pay 10%-20% upfront and the rest can be spread over up to two years.  You can read more information on the ATO website here.

If you did not earn any income for a quarter, you MUST still lodge your BAS. This applies for any quarter where you were registered for GST, even if you were only registered for one day.

Lodging a Nil BAS is quick and easy. Just log into your MyGov ATO account, navigate to the Business Activity Statement for that quarter and click lodge, tick the box to lodge as a Nil BAS, and submit.

If you are registered for GST, you must include ALL of your ABN income in your BAS, including food delivery income and any other income you earn on your ABN. This is true even if you earn under $75,000. 

If you ONLY do food delivery driving, you do not do rideshare driving, and your total ABN income is below $75,000 then you do not have to register for GST, which means you don’t have to lodge a BAS.

You must be registered for GST before you can lodge your BAS. If you need to lodge a BAS but you are not GST-registered yet, visit our free Uber GST Registration service. 

You don’t need a formal 12-week logbook to claim rideshare car expenses on your BAS. Instead, for BAS purposes, the ATO only requires you to make a reasonable estimate of the percentage that you use your car for Uber and Rideshare vs private/other use. You can read more here.

A PAYG Instalment is a pre-payment towards your end of year tax bill. The ATO will begin placing PAYG Instalments on your BAS’s if your income exceeds certain thresholds. The PAYG Instalments are payable as part of your BAS, and then at the end of the financial year you will receive credits on your tax return for the PAYG Instalments you paid during the year. 

Please visit our blog post PAYG Instalments for Uber Drivers for more information.

The spreadsheet is not compulsory, you do not need it in order to use the Express BAS service, it’s just a helpful extra tool.
