Take note of these changes to SMSF tax returns

It’s coming up to tax time, which means the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has released its tips for lodging your tax returns.

 For taxpayers with a self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF), there has been a change that you should be aware of.

 From the 2024 income year, if you received one or more distributions from trusts, you must complete a Trust Income Schedule and attach it to your SMSF return.

 To complete the trust income schedule, you will need either:

 * A statement of distribution from the trustee.

* A tax statement from your managed fund.

 For more information on the trust income schedule, visit:
