Section 2: What if a CFC receives a dividend from another CFC?

Last updated 18 May 2020

Non-portfolio dividends paid by a foreign company to a CFC are non-assessable non-exempt income of the CFC. Therefore, such dividends cannot form part of the attributable income of the CFC in relation to which an attributable taxpayer may be assessable under section 456.
