Amend filed STP to Nil

Question

Hi, I need to reverse STP filed. I tried doing this. Even though I reverse transaction and sent that to ATO. Verification report is not matched with STP amount.

whatever I reverse the payroll it reported as nil amount to ATO.

Please advise how to amend STP. I need to reverse all payroll reported.

Thanks.

Hi there @Robyn-Live,

To ensure the ATO is notified that you will no longer submit any payroll reports for the 2024-2025 financial year, you still need to finalise your payroll for that period.

Best regards,

Thanks Doreen,

Gotcha. Well I wouldn't concern then. For this client then there will be no payroll so I will have to adjust payg amount claimed so far in ATO to nil. My last question is that I don't need to do STP finalisation as there will be no wages for FY24-25.  For FY 24-25 stp finalisation I will just leave it then even though amount are shown in MYOB STP?

Hello @Robyn-Live,

The amounts recorded in the Single Touch Payroll (STP) system will not be removed, even if pay runs have been reversed. These figures will remain in the STP reporting window. As long as the payroll reports and the Year-to-Date (YTD) amounts are correct, there is no need for concern. To remove a filed STP amount, you can reverse the pay run. If you still need further assistance, our support team is just around the corner. You can reach out to them via our virtual assistant MOCA or by submitting a support case via MyAccount.
