Fund income tax return 2008 instructions

Switching regulators or changing trustees

Do not use either the Fund income tax return 2008 or the Self-managed superannuation fund annual return 2008 to report a switch of regulator or changes of trustees. If a non-regulated or APRA regulated superannuation fund attempts to lodge the Self-managed superannuation fund annual return 2008, it will be rejected. The same will occur if an SMSF attempts to lodge a Fund income tax return 2008.

All superannuation funds that switch regulators must inform the Tax Office within 21 days by either updating their details online at www.abr.gov.au or by completing a Change of details for superannuation entities form.
