Charge on land for duty liability of applicant
87E Charge on land for duty liability of applicant
Any duty liability that an applicant has under the scheme in respect of an agreement or transfer is a charge on the applicant’s interest in the land that is the subject of the agreement or transfer.
An applicant has a duty liability under the scheme in respect of an agreement or transfer if the applicant is required to pay an amount of duty to the Chief Commissioner because the Chief Commissioner has revoked his or her approval of an application for the new home grant in respect of the agreement or transfer.
The charge created by this section gives the Chief Commissioner an interest in the land and, accordingly, the Chief Commissioner may lodge a caveat in respect of the land under the Real Property Act 1900 to protect that interest.
The caveat must be withdrawn when the amount of the duty liability has been paid.
The amount of the duty liability is the amount of duty that the applicant is required to pay to the Chief Commissioner in respect of the relevant agreement or transfer, together with any interest or penalty tax payable.
