Hi,

I'm preparing my 2025 income tax return and need to amend the earnout arrangement. I know how to complete parts [Removed by moderator]&G in the earnout arrangement of the CGT Schedule. How can I personalise the online tax return so that I can open the schedule to complete it? The CGT Schedule seems only to open automatically if the capital gains are $10,000 or more, but my gains for 2024-5 were less than that. As a result, I can't see where the schedule is in myTax. Thank you for your help.

Hi @Jag8,


You can’t personalise your tax return in myTax to access or open the CGT Schedule, even if you’re amending an earnout arrangement and your capital gains are under $10,000. In myTax, the CGT Schedule isn’t available to open manually and only appears automatically in limited situations.


When lodging or amending through myTax, you need to use the Capital gains or losses section of the return. From Prepare return, select Add/Edit at the Capital gains or losses banner and enter your amended amounts (for example, your net capital gain or capital losses carried forward at label 7G) where prompted. MyTax doesn’t display all CGT Schedule labels, including the detailed earnout arrangement labels.


If you need to complete specific CGT Schedule labels (such as parts E and G for an earnout arrangement), and they aren’t available in myTax, you can’t lodge that amendment through myTax. In that case, you’ll need to use a registered tax agent or lodge by paper.
