FROM BETA TESTERS

From the first week.

I was surprised by just how helpful having this delivered straight to my inbox has been. In the very first week, it covered an issue one of our clients was directly facing, and the information from the Tony.Online team helped us resolve it in half the time. It’s already proven incredibly valuable.

This has been such a useful tool for saving us time and making sure we’re notified when important Tax Office advice is edited or updated. It gives us confidence that we’re not missing something we should be aware of.

BEFORE YOU SIGN UP

A few useful answers.

Anything else, just get in touch.

What is edited private advice?+

When a taxpayer asks the Tax Office for a private ruling, the Tax Office publishes an edited version of its answer with the identifying details removed. It shows you how the Tax Office reasons through a real fact pattern. It is not a public ruling and it binds the Tax Office only for the taxpayer who asked for it, but it is one of the clearest windows you get into current Tax Office thinking.

Is it really free?+

Yes. Weekly Private Advice is free, with no trial period and no card required. It exists because we are reading this material anyway.

How often will you email me?+

Once a week, on Tuesday. That is the whole thing. Signing up does not put you on any other list, and you can unsubscribe from the link at the bottom of any issue.

Can I rely on this for a client position?+

No, and neither can we. Edited private advice applies only to the taxpayer who requested it. Weekly Private Advice tells you what has been published and where to find it; the position you take for your client remains yours. Every item links to the source document so you can read it in full.

Do I need to be a Tony.Online customer?+

No. It is open to any Australian registered tax agent or accountant, whether or not you use Tony.Online.

What do you do with my email address?+

We use it to send you Weekly Private Advice. We do not sell it or pass it to anyone else. See our Privacy Policy for the detail.
