What we cover

Essential tax updates

The ATO has continued to release updates on key tax issues over the last couple of months. In this session we bring you up to date with the latest developments, including finalised guidance on how the ATO is likely to apply the anti-avoidance rules in Part IVA to clients who operate a personal services business through a company or trust. We look at arrangements the ATO considers to be lower-risk and higher-risk as well as some key practical issues to consider when dealing with clients in this area.

The ATO has also issued a specific warning around arrangements between related parties in connection with property development projects. We look at the types of arrangements being targeted by the ATO and the key tax issues being raised.
