Engaged in ride-sourcing services?

ATO ride sourcing data-matching program

The ATO will acquire ride-sourcing data relating to approximately 200,000 individuals to identify individuals that may be engaged in providing ride-sourcing services during the 2022/23 financial year.

Here’s what you need to know.

The data items include:

  • identification details (driver identifier, ABN, driver name, birth date, mobile phone number, email address and address); and
  • transaction details (bank account details, aggregated payment details, gross fares, net amount paid to driver, and all other income to which GST may or may not apply) of all payments received in the relevant period.

The data will be used to identify and inform ride-sourcing providers of their tax obligations as part of information and education campaigns.

The intelligence obtained will increase the ATO’s understanding of the behaviours and compliance profiles of individuals and businesses that provide ride-sourcing services, and may also be used as part of the methodologies by which the ATO selects taxpayers for compliance activities.

Justin Flavel

Managing Director

Justin’s experience spans across 20 years in accounting, financial analysis and general business practice.

Although born and bred on the land, Justin’s interest was more in spreadsheets, ledgers, and finance which led him to attend university. In 1992, Justin graduated with a Bachelor of Business majoring in Accounting and Finance. As well as qualifying as a CPA member and becoming a Fellow of the Taxation Institute of Australia, he began gaining practical experience in small and mid-tier accounting practices.

During the late 90s, Justin decided to expand his horizons and travel through Europe. It was during this time that he seized the opportunity to expand his knowledge on the workings of large organisations by taking on roles in multinational corporations.

Today, Justin’s passion is in facilitating businesses to grow and evolve. His focus is on acting in the role of business mentor to help clients develop the full potential of their businesses. He joins clients on their unique journey, and provides the tools and knowledge they need along the way to make the right decisions.

Justin’s aim for his clients parallels his own philosophy and personal journey—focusing on his own career growth and business success while maintaining balance in his life with his wife and three daughters.
