A recent survey of TEO attendees identified a number of idiosyncrasies and fishhooks that create issues for us and for our clients. These can be broadly broken into the following categories:

• GST registration requirements and the GST registration threshold including transactions between GST registered and non-registered parties
• Changes in use for GST purposes and the competing rules
• Access to residential rental losses and the inter-play between residential loss ring-fencing and quarantining of mixed-use assets
• FIF rules and the application of them
• Compliance matters such as provisional tax and time bar

Upon satisfactory completion of this activity, you will be able to:

• Navigate your way through some of the idiosyncrasies that we face in terms of income tax and GST
• Better manage unintended outcomes for your clients
• Manage interactions with the IRD on matters such as time bar

Suited to:

This course will be suited to accountants who deal with a wide range of issues for their clients

Duration: 1.00 CPD hours (55 mins plus 5 mins Q&A)
