# You will need to nominate us as your BAS Agent

 Published by [allsorted](https://www.allsorted.au/en/bookkeeping/author/allsorted) on 6 November 2023, 7:00:00 am AEST

![ATO-Client-Agent-Linking-Steps](https://www.allsorted.au/hs-fs/hubfs/ato-logo.png?width=1024&height=450&name=ato-logo.png)

From November 13, 2023, we can no longer access your ATO file without your explicitly nominating us.

As we currently have access, there is nothing that you need to do. However, if we lose access, which happens quite regularly, we will need to ask you to renominate us via the [Online Services for Business portal](https://onlineservices.ato.gov.au/business/)

If this is required, [these instructions](https://knowledge-base.allsorted.au/client-agent-linking?hsLang=en) will guide you through the process.
