Claim Description
An insured accountancy practice received a notice from the ATO advising that they intended to review several years of income tax, capital gains tax, and superannuation payments.
The accountancy retained specialist tax accountants to prepare an audit report. The entire process took over nine months to complete, and in the end, the ATO deemed that all was in order and did not impose any penalties.
Outcome
The accountancy’s Management Liability policy covered $87,500 of their tax audit costs ($88,500 minus the policy deductible).
