Common COIDA problems

Don't discover the problem when the Letter of Good Standing is urgent.

Returns outstanding Missing reporting periods can prevent a clean compliance position.
Payroll figures inconsistent Employer declarations should be supported by reliable payroll records.

Employee records not organised Weak payroll administration can make employer compliance more difficult.
Tender deadline approaching Contractor compliance should ideally be maintained before opportunities open.
