Tax File Number (TFN) details and other data are reported to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) when an employee changes their tax details, or commences employment with a new employer.

This information is reported to the ATO using magnetic media in an ATO approved format.

The Electronic Lodgement of TFN Declaration process allows you to produce a report for any new or changed TFN details for the employees in an organization.

The generated report processes details of all the transactions up till midnight of the day before the Report End Date. Entries of employees that are updated on the date on which the report is run are not picked up in the current run. These employees are picked up in the next run.

The report processes all the transactions for the last 14 days up until midnight of the day before the Report End Date. The report does not include any changes entered on the date that you run the report.

You run the Electronic Lodgement of TFN Declaration process from the Submit Request window.

1. In the Name field, select Electronic Lodgement of TFN Declaration. Then enter the Parameters field to open the Parameters window.
