Founded in Melbourne in 2012, AIMS Australia Tax Accountants is a CPA public practice that concentrates on Australian tax matters that grow more intricate when clients reside, work, invest, or hold assets across different jurisdictions. Rather than operating as a high-volume tax return service, the firm focuses on issues where Australian tax residency, overseas income, treaty provisions, Australian property, capital gains, and the timing of international movements can all intersect.
Its specialized work includes Australian tax residency and residency-transition reviews, dual-residency along with Double Tax Agreement analysis, foreign-resident Australian tax returns, Australian reporting of foreign income and foreign tax, capital gains tax implications of leaving Australian residency, Australian property and foreign-resident CGT matters, as well as overdue lodgements and ATO review or dispute routes where the underlying Australian tax position requires thorough reconstruction.
That focus mirrors the reality of cross-border tax: the correct Australian outcome often depends on a timeline of facts rather than a single data point. Dates of departure and return, the location and source of income, asset ownership, foreign tax paid, treaty residence, and contemporaneous evidence can all play a role in the final treatment adopted.

The practice is headed by Managing Partner Nika Widanage, FCPA, whose professional work centers on technically challenging Australian cross-border tax issues. Her areas of expertise cover tax residency and residency transitions, foreign residents, foreign income, Australian property, capital gains tax, and the interplay of Australian tax rules with internationally linked facts.
Widanageโs technical reach extends beyond client engagements. In February 2026, Accountants Daily published her analysis of cross-border tax risk, addressing topics such as residency, evidentiary requirements, controlled foreign companies, foreign trusts, foreign-resident CGT, and foreign income tax offsets. She was also profiled by Accounting Times in 2025 in connection with her focus on cross-border tax complexity and the growth of AIMS Australia Tax Accountants as a niche practice.

AIMS Australia Tax Accountants employs a methodical, evidence-driven process for complex engagements. Relevant facts, supporting documentation, assumptions, and applicable Australian tax requirements are examined before a filing position is taken, a tax return or capital gains schedule is prepared, or a submission is made. The firm also outlines the scope of complex work before starting, so that the issue being addressed, information needed, exclusions, and professional fee are all understood. Senior oversight is applied based on the technical complexity and professional risk of each engagement.
