3 Recent issues that trustees of a SMSF must be aware : Articles from Batallion Legal; law firm which provides our SMSF trust deed.
1. SIS Act breaches & ATO's discretion - factors
A failure to comply with the in-house asset rule in the SIS Act results in the
relevant SMSF losing its concessional tax treatment for the income year in which the breach happens. However, an application may be made to the ATO, for the ATO to exercise its discretion to treat the fund as complying despite the breach.
This article examines the factors that should be considered by the ATO in the exercise of its discretion. The factors to consider are found in the recent AAT decision of JNVQ and Commissioner of Taxation [2009] AATA 522.
2. Meaning of superannuation contributions
The ATO recently released Draft Taxation Ruling TR 2009/D3 on the meaning of the expression "superannuation contribution". In particular, the draft ruling explains the ATO's views on the ordinary meaning of the word "contribution" which is of relevance for income tax purposes.
It should be noted that while parts of the ruling are also relevant to the meaning of "contribution" for SIS Act purposes, superannuation law has its own definition of "contribution" which actually modifies the ordinary meaning of the expression (TR 2009/D3, paragraph 1).
3. Related party agreements & in-house asset rule
|
|
In Taxpayer Alert TA 2009/16, the ATO identifies an arrangement whereby an SMSF enters into an agreement with a related trust in order to acquire certain assets. The ATO considers whether this arrangement contravenes the in-house asset rule in section 71 of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (Cth) (SIS Act).
