With Coptic Orphans – I just got recognised as one of their top fans! 🎉

21/05/2026

Last weekend at the Langham Hotel Melbourne, MVH Accountants had the privilege of attending and sponsoring the Coptic Orphans Ignite Initiative — an inspiring evening dedicated to hope, compassion, and community impact.

It was an honour to hear from the Founder & Executive Director, Nermin Riad, whose powerful story and vision reflected the incredible journey of Coptic Orphans and the life-changing work being done to empower children and strengthen communities around the world.

A special thank you to Coptic Orphans Australia Director, John Ibrahim, for the invitation and for bringing together so many members of the Victorian Coptic business community in support of such a meaningful cause.

Special thanks as well to Sally Costandy for all her hard work, dedication, and efforts in helping make the event such a success.

Seeing our community united with a shared purpose was truly uplifting and a reminder that when faith is put into action through service to others, real and lasting change can happen.

MVH Accountants is humbled to support initiatives that reflect the values of love, mercy, stewardship, and giving back.

At MVH Accountants, we’re proud to support clients who are making a real difference in the community.

One of those clients is Driving Miss Daisy Doncaster — a business that goes far beyond transport.

You might notice their cars — Hoke the Honda and Quinn the Qashqai — but what truly sets them apart is their people.

Companion drivers like Angela:
• Walk clients safely to their door
• Wait patiently when appointments run over
• Provide genuine care and reassurance
• Support independence with dignity

This is what a purpose-driven business looks like — and we’re proud to be part of their journey.

If you or someone you know could benefit from this service:

And if you’re a business owner looking to grow with the right support behind you — that’s exactly what we do at MVH Accountants.

A Special Visit to MVH Accountants!

It was an absolute pleasure to welcome Andrew Conway, CEO of the Institute of Public Accountants(IPA), to our brand new office!

As soon as we approached him, Andrew was incredibly humble and didn’t hesitate for a second to come in and visit us, showing his genuine support for small-to-medium practices like ours.

We had the opportunity to sit down and have a long, insightful chat about public accounting practice, our journey from the very beginning, and the growth we’ve achieved to where we are today.

At MVH Accountants, we are proud to be part of the IPA under Andrew’s leadership and ongoing support. That’s why we are always promoting IPA everywhere — because we truly believe in the value of being part of this amazing professional body and that's why we encouraged Chantelle, our new team member who recently joined us to start her journey with IPA and once she became an Associate IPA (AIPA) member, she had an exceptional experience when Andrew personally contacted her to welcome her on board and into the IPA— an incredibly memorable moment for her and a true reflection of Andrew’s leadership.

Despite all the responsibilities he carries, Andrew still makes it a priority to connect with and support members on a personal level.

Thank you, Andrew, for your time, encouragement, and amazing support for both new and existing IPA members. We’re grateful to be on this journey with you!

Did you know you might be paying more tax than you should?

If you’re an international student or on a temporary visa (like the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa), and your home country doesn’t have a reciprocal Medicare agreement with Australia, you could be entitled to a Medicare Levy Exemption.

👉 That’s 2% of your taxable income saved – which could mean thousands of dollars back in your pocket! 💰

Not sure if you qualify? We’ll help you figure it out. ✅

Wondering how to maximise your tax deductions as a sole trader? One effective strategy is taking advantage of the instant asset write-off. If your business has an aggregate turnover of less than $10 million, you can claim the full cost of assets up to $20,000 in the year of purchase. This can lead to significant savings on your tax bill.

Navigating the Australian tax system can be daunting, especially with terms like the Medicare Levy and Medicare Levy Surcharge. The Medicare Levy, set at 2% of your taxable income, is crucial for funding our public health system. On the other hand, the Medicare Levy Surcharge is an additional tax for higher-income earners without private hospital cover. Did you know that singles earning over $90,000 or families earning over $180,000 could pay between 1% to 1.5% extra if they don't have private cover? It's essential to understand these components to better manage your finances and tax obligations. Have you reviewed how this impacts your tax return?

Fuel tax credits provide businesses with a credit for the fuel tax (excise or customs duty) that's included in the price of fuel used in:

machinery
plant
equipment
heavy vehicles
light vehicles travelling off public roads or on private roads.

The amount depends on when you acquire the fuel, what fuel you use and the activity you use it in. Fuel tax credits rates also change regularly so it's important to check the rates each time you do your business activity statement (BAS).

Some fuels and activities are not eligible including fuel you use in light vehicles of 4.5 tonnes gross vehicle mass (GVM) or less, travelling on public roads.

Are you working from home and wondering about tax deductions?

You might be able to claim occupancy expenses, but you'll need to prove that:

1- It was necessary for you to work from home because your employer doesn't provide you with an alternative place to work from
2- The area of your home that you use for work is exclusively or almost exclusively used for work purposes and isn't readily capable of being used for any other purpose.

This can include mortgage interest, rent, council and water rates, land taxes, and house insurance premiums.

Keep in mind that as an employee, claiming occupancy expenses is usually not an option, and there are no capital gains tax implications for your home.

Prepare now for your quarterly superannuation guarantee (SG) contribution lodgement and payment.

Things to review before finalising the quarterly superannuation lodgement:

Have you allocated all payroll related bank transactions to the correct accounts?
Have you checked for errors such as duplicate pay runs?
Have you checked that all payroll categories used this quarter have had super correctly applied or excluded?
Have you checked superannuation accrual reports for accuracy?
Do you have any salary sacrifice amounts to include?
Have you had to make any termination payments this quarter? If so, check which payroll categories should have super calculated or exempted.
Do you have complete and up-to-date contact details and a super choice form for all employees?
If new employees have not provided super choice details, have you checked with the ATO for stapled super fund details you can pay into?
Most superannuation clearing houses (including SuperStream compliant software companies) require payment by the 14th of the month in order to distribute the funds to the relevant super funds for each employee.

If you use the ATO Small business Clearing House (SBSCH) you have until the 28th to lodge and pay.

Checking the figures thoroughly each quarter ensures that you report and pay accurate amounts for each employee. You will also have a more accurate picture of your superannuation liability and be able to plan accordingly.

Penalties for late super can be severe. Superannuation calculations can be difficult if your payroll software is not set-up for correct accruals of superannuation guarantee.

We can help you review of your super set-up and the SG accounts used in your accounting software.
