The Deceased Estate: Who Pays the Tax

  • Sladen Legal 707 Collins Street Melbourne, VIC, 3000 Australia (map)

During the stages of administration of a deceased estate, a beneficiary may become presently entitled to the income. It is important to recognize this to determine who is responsible for the payment of income tax on that income. This session covers the various stages of administration, including:

  • Can a beneficiary be presently entitled to estate income prior to the estate being fully administered?

  • What if payments of income are paid to the beneficiaries whilst the estate is in administration?

  • When is a deceased estate fully administered?

  • Does the estate have to be wound up for beneficiaries to be presently entitled to the income?

  • How is the income of a deceased estate taxed in the financial year it is fully administered (IT 2622)?

  • Deceased estates and CGT assets (TR 2004/D25):

- When does a beneficiary have absolute entitlement?

- CGT event E5 and the Division 128 exclusion

- The fungible asset test

- Worked examples

  • The taxing of a deceased estate:

- For the first three income years after death

- More than three years after death

Who should watch

Financial planners, tax agents, accountants, lawyers and those interested in deceased estates.
