URGENT HELP - SBR - Change of ATO Branch Numbers for STP
Help! Please,
The business that i work for is currently undergoing SBR - Small Business Restructuring.
As a consequence our ATO Branch number changed from 001 to 004 on the 15 June.
Therefore, all pays processed after the 15 June - need to be allocated to new branch 004.
Unfortunately, I was not made aware of the changes until after 01 July 2025.
Therefore, two pays for 2024-2025 have been entered to the incorrect ATO Branch of 001
I have been advised to delete all of the pays entered to 001.
And re-enter to 004, for all pays processed since the 15 June 2025.
Which i have done.
To do this - the only thing i did was change the Branch number in the MYOB - STP reporting (as advised by MYOB support).
Unfortunately, they are not showing in ATO Portal at Branch 004 ???
So perhaps i have not done this correctly.
At the moment - my STP 2024-2025 figures are a mess - with two pays missing - and staff annoyed because they cannot lodge their returns.
Our Accountant has no idea how to fix it and the SBR Practitioners do not know either.
I called MYOB and i don't think the nice person i spoke to really understood what i needed to do.
I tried calling ATO and ..."they are experiencing a high demand of calls" and too busy for me just now 🙄
Perhaps - someone has been through this process and can point me in the right direction for correcting this mess.
Thank you,
Jo-Anne
