Hi @KVall,

You can't lodge your family trust income tax return online through ATO online services. To lodge your trust tax return, you have these options:

• use a registered tax agent
• lodge by paper.

The trustee lodges a trust tax return reporting the trust's net income or loss, which is the trust's assessable income less deductions. Each trust beneficiary then lodges their own tax return reporting any income received from the trust.

You can find information about how to lodge a trust tax return and download the paper forms on our income tax return page.
