All Topics / Help Needed! / Record keeping ATO receipts
Hi guys, silly question im sure. For things like utilities and insurance, is an invoice or payment request sufficient for record keeping? or would the ATO like a tax receipt showing proof of payment?
Thanks!
Hi minds-eye, I am not an accountant, as I understand it a copy of the invoice and your bank statement confirming where the funds came from will suffice.
Also not an accountant but I assume they'd want confirmation that it's been paid – an invoice/payment request alone doesn't show that.
Cheers

When you pay a bill you get a receipt number. Write the receipt number on the bill. That should suffice.
Even if you were audited I doubt they'd go through your bank accounts and ask to see where it was debited from.
I write the receipt number and where it was paid from. eg Bpay St George.
