Financial statements
Your organisation needs to provide financial statements if you want to apply for funding.
These statements need to be less than 18 months old at the closing date of the fund.
Upload these statements to your organisation's profile in the online Grant Management System.
You do not need to upload these statements to the Grants Management System if it is already on:
- the Charities Services website, or
- the Companies Office website.
Type of financial statements you need
The financial statements you need depend on your organisation's operating costs over the last 2 years.
- If those costs were $500,000 or less, your financial statements need to be approved by your governance board.
- If those costs were more than $500,000, your financial statements must be externally reviewed.
- If those costs were more than $1 million, your financial statements must be audited by a qualified auditor.
