 CIA will be closed From lunchtime Friday, 19 December, reopening at 9:00 am on Monday, 12 January. For any matters that cannot wait, we remain available via email@ciatax.com.au, which will be monitored daily throughout the Christmas holiday period. Get Your Tax Sorted Before Year-End December is an ideal time to finalise your tax and clear your desk before the calendar year ends! FREE Mentoring in January A part of our annual Christmas break tradition, we’re offering free mentoring throughout January—covering all things business, financial, life, and investment. For more details, contact our Senior Partner, Dr Steve Enticott sje@ciatax.com.au  Financial Intentionality: Being intentional with your finances matters now more than ever. As tax systems evolve and strengthen, the way we deploy our capital is becoming increasingly important. But financial intentionality isn’t just for the wealthy—it’s about the journey. It’s about how you invest your time, your talents, your values, and your purpose, rather than simply focusing on risky accumulation.

Our Nature Fund Is 100% Tax Deductible Through our conservation efforts at Carbon Landscapes (https://carbonlandscapes.com.au/) and our fully tax-deductible Biodiversity Fund (https://catchment.org.au/), we’ve continued to protect and restore critical systems. We’ve also received significant media attention this year as we secured multiple vital habitats—including welcoming our second island into our growing network of protected areas. If you’re interested in getting involved or supporting our nature-based work, we’d love to hear from you.  And of course, you’re always welcome to come out for a summertime visit… |
