I would highly recommend anyone operating some sort of business/LLC in US get the right advice from an accountant who understands US tax laws its incredibly complicated and there is a form for just about anything and everything.
From experience ATO is a joy to deal with in comparison to IRS.
I received $10,000 penalty due to an oversight, IRS penalise first and then work through the process. It's not a walk it the park and they don't care if you are a foreign investor. The penalty was eventually waived.
If you are not prepared to go through the right professional then fool you, as I mentioned penalties are very high.
I went from an accountant in Australia who was apparently skilled in US tax/law however he made so many errors because he just filled out the forms incorrectly then in turn cost me money. Now, I only use an accountant in US, has made a huge difference, he understands the beast and has made my life less stressful. His details are above.
