Outstanding annual returns and amounts
252G Outstanding annual returns and amounts
Outstanding annual returns etc.—self managed funds
If:
a superannuation fund was a self managed superannuation fund at either of the following times:
the end of the last day of a designated year of income; or
if the fund ceased to exist during a designated year of income—the time at which the fund ceased to exist; and
at that time, a trustee of the fund was under an obligation to ensure that APRA is given an annual return in respect of a previous year of income, or any other report or information under this Act or the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001;
each trustee of the fund is taken (subject to any later application of this section) to be under an obligation, beginning immediately after that time, to ensure that the annual return, report or information is given to the Commissioner of Taxation. The annual return, report or information is to be given in the approved form.
This provision only affects annual returns outstanding from years before the designated year of income. A trustee will still be required to submit a return under section 36A for the designated year of income (and also under the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001 if the fund changed status during the designated year of income). Levy will be payable on lodgment of any such return.
