The sessions
01 Small scale property development - case study
12-1PM AEDT Thursday February 12th, 2026
There is a national focus on increasing housing in Australia. To start the year, we will go through a case study of the income tax and GST pitfalls, and issues faced by small-scale and mixed purpose property development.
02 Trust Losses
12-1PM AEDT Thursday 12th March, 2026.
Recouping trust losses is an ever-present issue for tax agents. With an increased ATO focus on trusts, it is timely to review the trust loss rules. These include different tests for different trust types and whether making an FTE cures all issues.
03 Employee or contractor? Tax issues for the payer
12-1PM AEST Thursday 9th April, 2025.
It can be difficult for a business to know it has properly addressed its risks when hiring contractors. The STP, SGC, WorkCover, and PRT all have their own rules, and the outcomes cannot always be resolved by the parties saying there is no employment relationship. What risks are there and how can they be addressed?
04 Current and emerging issues in FBT, Payroll Tax & other employment taxes
12-1PM AEST Thursday 14th May, 2025.
A review of current and emerging issues in FBT, Payroll Tax, and other employment taxes.
05 GST & Reimbursements
12-1PM AEST Thursday 11th June, 2025.
When it comes to GST and reimbursements, a wide range of issues emerge. We will look at various examples, including employee expenses, disbursement of costs under supply contracts, and where costs are incurred by agents.
