NZ Tax - Show the % RWT/DWT/ICA rate in tax statement worksheet/ Use of money interest
It would be good to see the tax rate deducted for RWT/DWT/ICA for interest and dividends when printed on the tax statements worksheet/schedules. Then you can see that the information has been entered correctly (ie 33% for tax on dividends)
Also be better to have use of money interest adding into the terminal tax date in the tax payment summary showing total payable, rather than a sentence above it!2 votes -
AU Tax - Ability to lodge FBT return for clubs & society structures
FBT Returns - I have been informed by Xero Support that FBT Returns can only be created for the following structure types:
Individual
Company
Trust
Partnership
Self Managed Superannuation FundNoting that individuals, partnerships and SMSF do not require FBT Returns it seems more prudent to make them available for the club and society structures who actually my have FBT to lodge.
1 voteThanks for your idea, Andrew. Not something we have planned right now but we'll gain the interest from your idea here and share if there are any updates planned for this.

AU Tax - Change default to 'Yes' for transfer capital gains to tax return on Managed Fund Schedule
On Managed Fund Schedule can the transfer capital gains to tax return default to "yes" instead of "no" ?
1 voteHi Lucy, thanks for sharing this specific feedback about our AU Tax module. We know that small adjustments to default settings can often make a big difference in streamlining a workflow.
We've reviewed your suggestion to change the default option to 'Yes' for transferring capital gains to the tax return on the Managed Fund Schedule. Your idea is now ready to gain support and feedback from other tax preparers in the community.

UK Tax - Corporation Tax Marginal Relief computation
Please can the corporation tax computation include a calculation of the marginal relief.
This would need to include the amount of associated companies and the calculation of the marginal relief amount rather than just showing the total of marginal relief.

NZ Tax - Ability to add multiple default email addresses for tax payment letters
Ability to add multiple email addresses for tax payment letters.
This would be great if looked into very soon.
We have been manually entering additional email addresses which is a bit of a worry if a character is misspelt.
When copy and paste is used the changes get made to all clients and is a real disaster.14 votes -

NZ Tax: Terminal tax labelled as Residual tax to pay
On the IR3 2024 tax return it is currently labelling the tax liability after provisional tax paid as 2024 residual tax to pay. It should say "Tax to pay" or "Terminal Tax to pay". It is incorrect and confusing to have the tax before and also after provisional tax to both be labelled as residual tax. In communications when we are advising on provisional tax obligations we reference the obligation being based on 105% or 110% of residual income tax and now that is not clear for the client which figure we are using. In addition under the 2025 provisional…
9 votesHi team, we appreciate your insight into the confusion this label can cause. This is something our product team plan to address and make a change for within payment summary for 2025 IR3.
I'll be back to share more updates as this is worked on.

UK Tax - File historic tax returns through Xero
It would be useful to be able to file historic tax returns prior to the dates shown in Xero. I have a client who submitted his own accounts but has never submitted his own tax returns so we need to file 4 returns for him but we are only able to go back 2 years.
5 votesHi Natalia, just to make sure I'm sharing this back with the right team internally. Where abouts is your client based. Our Tax products for each region are developed separately for their own needs and regulations so this information will make sure I get it back to the right team to consider.

AU Tax - ITR signatory for deceased or incapacitated individuals
Where the individual client title has been changed to "Executor for" or "Representative for" the declarations should also be updated with this information. Currently the declarations still just use the individual name, who may be deceased or unable to sign on their own behalf.

AU Tax - Ability to change password for Outcome of Assessment(OoA)
see CX0014868568
can we modify the password settings?
we prefer dd/mm/yyyyor allow us to modify the password in whatever way we see fit.
the current method of dd-Mmm-yyyy with the first letter of the month being capitalise gets cumbersome for clients
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea in the forums here, Christopher. There aren't any plans around this right now, but we'll gain a sense of the interest for being able to edit the password for OoA's from your idea here, and share if there's any news.

AU Tax | Report Builder - More specific fields

In particular, get a list of every client that has a number in the Tax Return Labels – Interest Expense or Interest Expense overseas or Royalty Expenses Overseas - See attach screenshots

NZ Tax - Tax returns show amount at Tax Pooling
Currently NZ clients can make payments to a Tax Pooling provider (e.g. Tax Traders or TMNZ) and they will sit in the Tax Pooling Providers account until transferred to IRD.
In the clients mind they have 'paid this tax' already, but when the tax return is prepared in XPM there is no sign of any tax pooling payments, and it shows the full tax liability.It would be great if there was a way to type in how much has been paid to Tax Pooling, and record this on the front page of the tax return so there is a…
1 voteThank you for this excellent and detailed suggestion regarding NZ tax returns and tax pooling payments.
We can certainly see how clients would find it confusing when their prepared tax return in XPM doesn't reflect payments they have already made to a provider like TMNZ or Tax Traders. Your idea to add a note or a specific field on the return to record this amount would be a great way to provide clarity and manage client expectations.
We're grateful for your engagement and for letting us know the changes that matter to you. We've reviewed your idea and now it can gain support from other community members.
Along with votes, others can now comment to share additional detail about how this feature could improve their practice and client conversations around tax payments.

Personal tax (UK) - Ability to add payments already made
In Xero Tax, you can enter "Any other payments or credits on account" to show what a client has already paid towards their tax bill. But you can't enter a negative figure (i.e. a refund already received for a return that is being amended) and there is nowhere to add in any outstanding tax from a previous return etc so that the payments report factors this in.
It would be good to be able to have some additional boxes to show these please.
1 voteThanks for sharing your idea for being able to enter a negative figure for other payments. This is something our product team are currently exploring and we'll keep you updated on any progress for this, here.

AU Tax - Franking account worksheet
It will be great if Xero has its own separated spreadsheet to keep the record or, ideally, import into the CTR's franking account.
Currently we have to use third party software to keep track of the franking account, and I have seen some of the tools can import from ATO Portal too via csv / pdf.

AU Tax - Bulk create tax returns
Every year we have to manually create tax returns for each client - would be great if the client is listed as an existing client on both XPM and ATO that XPM can bulk create the tax returns for that relevant year run. This would cut down a lot of admin time.

NZ Tax - IR10 Report Code Description
Within the report code descriptions, identifying which IR10 Key Point for NZ tax the report code will feed through to.
E.g.
Non-deductible entertainment will go to "Box/Key Point 24 - Other Expenses" and "Box 28 Tax Adjustments"This will give a little bit more visibility as to where each item will end up, particularly for the balance sheet.
If you can segregate this visibility to NZ only files as well, that would be beneficial for other countries not getting information not relevant for them.
3 votesHi David, thank you for the suggestion to add descriptions identifying the IR10 Key Point will feed through to. We will move this idea to submitted for other users to add their support and comments to.
In the meantime, the IR10 and AIM mapping from Xero to Practice Manager support article is a useful resource which contains information on how the fields are mapped.

AU Tax - Return status
It would be great to have two additional tax return status values, to more efficiently support the typical workflows of busy tax agents.
Waiting on information - return cannot progress until the client provides missing info.
Rejected - return has failed review and requires adjustment before it can be lodged.

AU Tax | Cover letter - Add Title placeholder
Need a placeholder for title (Mr/Ms etc) for cover letters. It should be an easy implementation, as tax returns should already have that as a label. We need it for the address section of the cover letter.
