Tax Agent Supervision

Tax agent supervision in Australia is overseen by the Tax Practitioners Board (TPB), which is an independent government agency. The TPB’s role is to protect the public interest by ensuring that tax agents and BAS agents provide competent tax services.

Under the Tax Agent Services Act 2009 (TASA), all registered tax agents must have a supervising tax agent. A supervising tax agent is a registered tax agent who has the necessary qualifications and experience to supervise the work of other tax agents.

The TPB has issued guidance on tax agent supervision, which sets out the minimum requirements for supervisory arrangements. These requirements include:

  • The supervising tax agent must have a clear understanding of the work being supervised.
  • The supervising tax agent must provide regular and effective supervision.
  • The supervising tax agent must be able to identify and address any potential problems.

The TPB also expects supervising tax agents to have a system in place to review the work of their supervisees. This may involve reviewing tax returns, advice, and other tax-related documents.

The TPB takes tax agent supervision very seriously. If a supervising tax agent is found to have failed to adequately supervise their supervisees, they may be subject to disciplinary action. This could include suspension or cancellation of their tax agent registration.

Tax agent supervision is an important part of the Australian tax system. It helps to ensure that tax agents provide competent services and that the public is protected.

Here are some of the benefits of tax agent supervision:

  • It helps to improve the quality of tax services.
  • It helps to reduce the risk of errors and omissions.
  • It helps to protect the public from unscrupulous tax agents.
  • It helps to maintain public confidence in the tax system.

If you are a taxpayer, you should be confident that your tax agent is being adequately supervised. You can ask your tax agent about their supervisory arrangements, or you can contact the TPB for more information.
