What does it mean to deliberately omit information?
If you have been charged with Deliberately Omitting Information under Section 58 of the Taxation Administration Act 1997, it is critical to understand the nature of the offence and the potential consequences.
This offence involves intentionally leaving out crucial information when making a statement to a tax officer.
What Must the Prosecution Prove:
To secure a conviction for this offence, the prosecution must establish:
- You omitted information from a statement made to a tax officer.
- The omission made the statement false or misleading in a material way.
- You knew that the omission would render the statement false or misleading.
Penalties for omitting information:
The penalties for Deliberately Omitting Information are significant:
- Body Corporate: Up to 500 penalty units.
- Individual: Up to 100 penalty units.
Where will my case be heard?
Cases involving the deliberate omission of information are heard in the Magistrates’ Court of Victoria.
Factors and defences to consider:
Before deciding how to proceed, consider the following:
- Was the omitted information crucial to the statement’s accuracy?
- Did you knowingly omit the information?
- Can the prosecution prove your intent to mislead?
- Do you have a reasonable excuse for the omission?
These questions will help determine whether you have a valid defence. An experienced criminal lawyer can assess whether you intentionally omitted information and explore possible defences or mitigating factors in your case.

Read MoreI would like to sincerely thank Ashleigh for her exceptional support and professionalism during a very difficult time in my life. From the first meeting, she was calm, respectful, and clear about what I could expect. She never judged me, always listened carefully, and explained every step of the legal process in a way that made me feel supported and confident. Ashleigh handled my case involving a traffic offence with care and honesty. She gave me solid advice, helped me prepare all the right documents, and even guided me on how to speak respectfully in court. Because of her help, I was able to present myself properly before the judge and achieve a much better outcome than I expected. What really stood out to me was her genuine concern for my future. She didn’t treat me like “just another case.” Ashleigh is not only a skilled lawyer — she is also a kind person who truly cares about her clients. I highly recommend Ashleigh to anyone in need of legal help. She is trustworthy, professional, and goes above and beyond for her clients. Thank you again for everything. Read Less55/5
