Select two questions to answer which will connect your MyGovID to your Director ID. In this instance, bank account details and notice of assessment have been used.

Enter bank details (if that was your chosen field). These are the bank details that would have been included with your last tax return.

If using notice of assessment, check the box and enter the required information. The date and reference number can be found on your notice of assessment in your MyGov inbox or provided by your accountant. Click "I agree to verifying and linking my record." and submit.

Click "Continue"
