What reports you need to lodge

If your corporation is required to lodge reports here's a quick tool to help you work out what reports you need to prepare and lodge.

Tool: Work out what reports your corporation needs to lodge this year 

Step 1: What size is your corporation?



See your corporation’s registered size on the public Register of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Corporations at oric.gov.au – use the ‘Find a corporation’ tool, search for your corporation’s name. Your size appears in the search results table and also in the ‘Extract’.

Step 2: How much income did the corporation have for the financial year?



Step 3: Combine your results from steps 1 and 2

Size + income = what reports you need to lodge. 

Registered size    Consolidated gross operating income for the year    Report(s) required 
Small corporation  + less than $100 000  = General report only
Small corporation  + between $100 000 and $5 million  = General report

Audit report*
Small corporation  + $5 million or more  = General report
