Form RA04 - Direct debit request – CAS 360 Australia

Details

If you use EDGE to lodge documents that have a fee, you can pay by direct debit or credit.

Agents have the ability to set up a direct debit account with ASIC. The direct debit account is used for payments for lodging certain forms with ASIC including the following:

To set up direct debit or credit payments you will need to complete a Direct Debit Request Form RA04. Form RA04 is a manual form. This authorises us to debit money from the company's account.

Once a direct debit account has been created with ASIC, the above documents which are lodged and accepted using CAS 360 will receive an ASIC invoice into the program and any required fees will be automatically deducted from your ASIC Agent Debit account.

While the Direct Debit account is optional for ASIC payments, it is a requirement for Company Registrations

Users preparing and lodging Company Registrations must have a Direct Debit account

From the Main Toolbar, go to Company.
