About the Webinar
Practitioners are continually faced with the dilemma of whether an amendment to the trust deed constitutes a resettlement of a trust. Even though the Commissioner made his views clear in TD 2012/21, confusion and uncertainty still abounds in the taxpayer community. This session seeks to clarify the misunderstanding and discusses the following areas:
- What is a resettlement?
- What are the income tax and CGT consequences?
- Review of TD 2012/21 and FCT v Clark [2011] FCAFC 5
- Can I amend the trust deed without resettling?
- Practical scenarios (e.g. what happens if the deed is lost and a replacement deed is obtained, is that a trigger for a resettlement?)
- What sort of amendments will trigger a resettlement? (e.g. amendments to irrevocably remove a beneficiary)
- Are deeds of disclaimer an alternative to amending the deed to remove a beneficiary? - The Trustee for the Whitby Trust and Commissioner of Taxation [2019] AATA 5637 and Lewski v FCT [2017] FCAFC 145
