    Thanks for the detailed explanations. For a foreign family trust, one of two Australian resident beneficiaries receives a distribution $10,000 from a foreign family trust while the other Australian resident receives no distribution from the foreign family trust, what are the Australian taxes payable by these two Australian residents?

    • @TwelveAccounting
      @TwelveAccounting  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good Morning. To answer that question I would need to know what country the foreign family trust is located in. There are a number of tax treaties that would need to be considered. If you would like any further information email info@twelve.com.au. Regards Derek

    • @amanpolara363
      @amanpolara363 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Particularly in a family trust, a trustee is himself a beneficiary because he is benefited with tax income through distribution. But on paper, a trustee is not and can't be a beneficiary.

    Thank you for your great video about family trust ,I love your content very informative .
    I have two questions and I appreciate it if you could answer please :
    1) I have a sister who lives in England , can I distribute money to her as part of the trust beneficiaries( she is not an Australian citizen not Australian permanent resident ).
    2)my mother is on Centrelink benefits ( disability Pension) how much I can distribute to her before she gets in trouble with the Centrelink ?

    • @TwelveAccounting
      @TwelveAccounting  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      1) yes you can, but withholding tax of 47% will apply (so most people don't do it): 2) that will depend on what other income she receives, however i believe a single pensioner can receive $180 per fortnight ($4,680 pa) before their pension is effected. derek

      @@TwelveAccounting alex s I believe that a Trust (in the UK, it may be different elsewhere) can make loans to your mother, which could be repaid from the value of her estate. In that way, she can benefit and the Trust does not loose anything. As to your sister, if she is a beneficiary of an estate or Trust, the Trustees can make payment to her, but not sure if Australian tax is payable, it is not in the UK.

    Thanks for your video. Can you take trust profit tax free as superannuation assigned to a beneficiary?

    • @TwelveAccounting
      @TwelveAccounting  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Any distribution from the trust will be taxable to the individual person (superannuation funds can not be a beneficiary of a family Trust), however individuals can now make a direct contribution to personal superannuation and claim a tax deduction for the contribution. An individual who receives a trust distribution can then contribute (or part) to superannuation and effectively make it tax free. Remember that contributions to superannuation are usually taxed at 15%.

    • @derekcraignolan

      There are rules regarding Personal Services income (PSI) that will limit the tax effectiveness of flowing your 'second job' income through a trust. Usually not.

    If a trust makes a profit, can you just have it reinvested into other assets rather than paying it out?

    • @TwelveAccounting
      @TwelveAccounting  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      No. The amount must be distributed for income tax purposes and tax paid by the beneficiaries, if they choose to reinvest or loan the money back to the trust, they can. Regards Derek

    • @malcolmalexander5246
      @malcolmalexander5246 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Trusts are not worth doing unless the there are good tax benefits by doing so. If family members are the trustees rather than having companies or lawyers acting as trustees, the costs are considerably less. However, some trusts are constructed in a more complex way and professionals are best to have as Trustees together with family members. Never give total control to professional trustees or the family would loose all control.

    Very nicely explained. I am confused on one thing --- people create a trust to get the protection, when creating the trust, often times we are recommended to transfer all our properties, such as house, rental property, cars, etc., into the trust. Now when you talked about the trust get sued you mentioned that it has almost nothing except a couple of dollars in the bank, a couple computers, so that the properties can't be taken away. If we don't put properties into it, then what is the protection for? If the properties are still with the individuals, when the individuals get sued they will just have the same risk as not having the trust, except maybe like you said having some tax benefits.

    • @TwelveAccounting

    At first I thought this guy was actually giving the money to his niece but then he admits he is actively evading tax and implies very subtly that she doesn’t actually get the money... Will be showing this to the ATO! Good luck in court defending yourself from tax evasion Derek hahahahaha

    • @TwelveAccounting
      @TwelveAccounting  5 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      In the example i used, as long as the niece declares the income in her tax return and pays tax on it there is no evasion of tax. This is why family trusts are used.
