Hey fellow tax people
Im doing my trust return for a simple family trust. The income from it is less than 25K. Both myself and partner are up to date with our returns and have have no amounts owing or overdue
Iam not going through a tax agent , but doing it on paper as its a very simple trust consisting of just term deposits.
What is the due date for such a return?
Hiya @Marty7411,
For most trusts, including family trusts, the due date for lodging the tax return is 31 October if you are preparing and lodging it yourself (not using a tax agent). This applies to your situation, as you're lodging a paper tax return for the family trust.
Keep in mind that trusts that derive any income, regardless of the amount, are generally required to lodge a tax return unless specifically exempt.
