Having a few things ready before your first conversation will save time and help your accountant give better advice sooner.
List your income sources
Every platform you earn from — YouTube, OnlyFans, TikTok, Twitch, Patreon, brand deals, merch, etc.
Know your ABN status
Whether you have an ABN, are operating as a sole trader, or need to set one up for the first time.
Export payout records
Earnings summaries from each platform for the relevant tax year — screenshots or CSV exports both work.
Note deductible expenses
Camera gear, lighting, editing software, subscriptions, home office costs, internet and phone usage.
Flag any foreign income
Many platforms pay from the US or Ireland — overseas payments have specific Australian tax implications.
Find last year's return
If you've been earning more than a year, your previous return (or a note if it's unlodged) helps your accountant spot gaps.
