TOPIC: Demystifying Division 7A - common misunderstanding and challenges
While the deemed dividend rules in Division 7A have been in place for many years, it continues to be a major area of focus for the ATO in relation to private businesses and family groups and a key risk area for advisors.
There are many ways in which Division 7A issues can arise, and while the rules have been in place for many years, it remains a key area of focus for the ATO and a major risk area for private client groups. The ATO continues to see a wide range of fundamental errors in applying Division 7A. This includes a lack of compliance with the rules and in many cases a failure to correctly disclose debit loan balances in company tax returns.
Agenda:
- Current ATO activity relating to Division 7A
- Section 109RB – Commissioner’s Discretion
- Why the change of heart and how your client’s problem might become your problem
- Alternatives to dealing with historical problems
