Advice under development – trust specific issues

Effect of COVID-19 on our work

Our public advice and guidance program is currently focused on:

• supporting the community with a range of tax and super issues arising from the impacts of COVID-19 on the community, and
• providing practical guidance on the tax and super aspects of the government’s economic response.

This is affecting the delivery of other advice and guidance products. We have considered the relative priority of the issues listed on this program. We will provide updates if we further revise our scheduling.

If you are concerned about the delay in the delivery of particular pieces of public advice and guidance, email us at publicguidance@ato.gov.au
