Chapter 12 Qu 12.10

    Rather than Jackson recovering penalties and shortfall interest from Rob, wouldn’t he be protected from having them applied under the Safe Harbour provisions, as he used a tax agent and supplied all information.

     

    Thanks

    Hi Wendy,

    thanks for the query.

    The Safe Harbour provision does not apply where the penalty arises from recklessness or intentional disregard of the tax law by you, nor does it apply to other administrative penalties, including when tax avoidance schemes are involved (Check ATO – https://www.ato.gov.au/Tax-professionals/Prepare-and-lodge/Tax-agent-lodgment-program/Safe-harbour/)

    As during the auditing process, Jackson also tried to conceal the error, therefore, the commissioner issues Jackson’s assessment was reckless. As mentioned, the Safe Harbour provision would not be able to apply.

    Regards
