Overview
From the 2024 income year, if a Company receives one or more distributions from trusts, including (ETFs, Managed Funds, & Stapled Securities), you must complete and attach a Trust income schedule to the Company's Annual Return. The ATO expects any investment with trust income recorded in the Company Annual Return at item 6 – label E or H, item 7 - label A and item 8 - labels G, R, B, U or V to complete a Trust Income Schedule.
How it affects Simple Invest 360
When generating the tax return for the 2024 Financial year onwards, Simple Invest 360 will automatically create a schedule for each Investment that receives a Distribution during the Financial Year.
The Tax components from an Annual Tax Statement that have been entered using the Distribution Tax Automation screen, received through a Wrap Feed or manually entered into the Transaction screen will be populated into the schedule.
The ATO has provided instructions for the Trust identifier and to complete the identifier in the following order of priority:
Trust identifier
- For non-managed funds provide either the ABN of the distributing trust or provide the ACN of the Corporate trustee of the distributing trust.
- For managed funds supply the investor number of the distributing trust. The Investor number is obtained from the Feed Management database if a wrap account is set up for the Fund. Otherwise, users will need to input the Investor number on the Trust Income Schedule manually.
Why does the ATO need this information?
The Modernisation of Trust Administration Systems (MTAS) project is an ATO-wide strategy to improve the quality, accuracy and integrity of annual income tax return information reported by directors and shareholders. These changes include:
- Modiying the labels in the statement of distribution - which is part of the trust tax return - to improve the reporting of beneficiary details.
- Introducing a new schedule (trust income schedule) that all trust beneficiary types who receive trust income will need to lodge with their tax return - this will assist reporting and facilitate consistency of reporting across all beneficiary types.
Learn more about the MTAS project and these changes at ato.gov.au/MTAS.
Please Note
