About Jan
A boutique practice, by design.
Before opening Jansen Tax & Advisory in Avalon Beach, Jan was a Tax Manager at a Northern Beaches CPA practice. Now every client works with him directly, so you get that experience first-hand, not passed down the line.
Keeping the practice small is deliberate. It means unhurried conversations, advice that looks ahead, and one person who knows your situation from one year to the next.

FAQ
Questions, answered plainly.
Common questions about working with Jan. If yours isn't here, bring it to your free intro call.
Do I need to live on the Northern Beaches to work with Jan?
No. Most of Jan's work is done online, so he works with clients anywhere in Australia by phone or video call, with documents sent by email. He can meet in person on the Northern Beaches by arrangement.
How much will my tax return cost?
It depends on what's involved. Individual returns start from $220 and investor returns, including one rental property, from $340 — our pricing page lists indicative starting prices for common situations. Every client receives a fixed written quote after the intro call, before any work begins, so you'll know the cost upfront.
When is my tax return due?
If you lodge your own return, it's generally due by 31 October after the income year ends on 30 June — for example, 31 October 2026 for the 2025–26 year. If you're on a registered tax agent's client list before 31 October, you can usually lodge later under the ATO's lodgment program. Jan will confirm your due date when you engage him.
Will I deal with Jan directly?
Yes. Jan personally handles your work from the first conversation to lodgment. There are no hand-offs to junior staff.
