What you get with Eager and Partners

$0 upfront for eligible clients

If you are eligible, we deduct our fees directly from your ATO refund, so you pay nothing on the day. Most everyday individual returns qualify. You are eligible if all of these apply:

  • You are lodging one individual tax return for the current year
  • You are not lodging multiple years or returns for business entities
  • You do not have an outstanding debt with the ATO
  • Your expected refund covers our fee in full
  • You have not had Child Support or Services Australia deductions taken from your ATO refunds in the past 24 months

If any of these do not apply, that is completely fine. Our standard arrangement is payment before lodgement, and we explain your fee clearly at your appointment. Not sure if you qualify? Just ask when you walk in or book.

Walk-ins welcome

No appointment? No problem. Drop into our Bairnsdale or Lakes Entrance office during opening hours and we will help you with your individual tax return. Prefer to plan ahead? You can book a time online or over the phone.

Local knowledge

Our accountants know East Gippsland and the work people here do. We go through your situation properly so you claim what you are entitled to, with nothing missed and nothing overstated.

Our fee for a basic individual tax return starts at $209 including GST. If your return is more involved, for example you have a rental property or investments, we tell you the exact fee before any work begins. Discounts may be available for pensioners, Centrelink clients, and students. Just ask when you walk in or book.
