I am of the opinion that you only get 1 chance to move a low value asset to a Low Value Pool and that is in the first year that it drops below $1,000 even if a Low value pool doesn't already exists.
I constantly see low value pools being created years after assets went below $1,000.
I can't find any mention of my belief nor the practice of moving assets several years after falling below $1,000
Any Assistance would be great !

ATO does not indicate one way or the other.

Got 2 new clients who have 4 rentals between them.
Property A & B 50% ownership, Property C 100% by Client A and Property D 100% by Client B.
Things have been depreciated that should have been claimed outright in Div 40 AND Div 43.
I am considering moving all Div 40 into Low Value Pools.
I know technically there should only be 1 pool but as this will be written off when property is sold I think it's best to have Pools by property.
They previously sold 2 other properties last financial year, so they may sell more soon?

I use HandiLedger for depn on properties, so I can have separate depn and capital works schedules for each property.
When depn asset's WDV passes under $1000, the method is changed to LVP and all the properties feed into a single LVP with a breakdown of the assets by property.
