Lodging a nil return
Background information
You must lodge your periodic returns monthly, unless we approve a different period. Your return is due 7 days after the end of the return period. For example, a return for the month of January is due by 7 February.
Even if you don't have to pay any tax, you must still submit a return recording 'nil' payment. This is called a Nil Return.
