This video post outlines the government's new trust disclosure rules: what they are, and who they apply to. The new rules require trusts to make additional disclosures when filing income tax returns unless the trust meets certain exemptions. Non-exempt trusts need to prepare financial statements with a profit loss account and balance sheet, or a statement of financial position. Plus details of any settlements going back to formation, and details of beneficiary distributions. Any key roles that have changed within the trust must also be disclosed annually.
I attended the GRA function last night - it was excellent, and goodness your knowledge is like an encyclopaedia! Phenomenal. We have already had an initial free consult with John Rowe, have attended one of Matthew's info evenings, and are already booked for Property School. I've read Tax Structures and am reading Property 101. We are very interested in moving to you for accounting also - our current accountant is lovely, and his fees are very low, but the more I'm learning, the more I'm realising this sweet man has oftentimes not steered us in the best directions, and definitely never asset structured us properly - and that is all in the plans to get sorted thx to getting to know GRA. - Tat & Trip - June 2016
