The ACNC has granted registered charities an extension to the deadline for annual reporting.
Charities that use a standard reporting period of 1 July to 30 June will now have until 31 January 2016 to submit their 2015 Annual Information Statement (AIS), a one month extension.
ACNC Commissioner, Susan Pascoe, said the approaching busy Christmas period was behind the decision to grant an extension to charities. “The extension provides charities an extra month to take into account the ACNC’s closure during the Christmas and New Year period, when our Advice Services team will be unavailable to assist,” Pascoe said.
