LIVE WEBINAR | Holiday Homes and Rental Properties Under the New ATO Guidance: Getting the 2026/27 Return Right

24th July: Register Now - https://bit.ly/3Q41SL7

The ATO’s finalised rental property guidance is now in place — and the 2026/27 income year is the first year in which TR 2026/1, PCG 2026/2 and PCG 2026/3 will apply without the benefit of the ATO’s transitional compliance approach for pre-1 July 2026 expenses. With IT 2167 withdrawn and the ATO now applying a much sharper lens to holiday home deductions under s 26-50, accountants need to revisit how they prepare rental property returns for clients with mixed private and income-producing use. This session gives accountants the technical grounding and practical tools to navigate the new framework and prepare accurate, defensible returns for affected clients.

When the other side refuses to engage, the pre-action procedures can quickly become less about resolution and more about delay, cost and frustration. While the framework is intended to encourage early settlement, many family lawyers are finding that it can just as easily entrench positions and push matters toward litigation. We spoke with family lawyer Adam Cooper, of Cooper Family Law, about where the process breaks down in practice and how to respond when the other side simply won’t play ball.

The Federal Government’s proposed 30% tax on trust distributions represents one of the most significant trust tax reforms in decades. While much of the immediate commentary has focused on the headline rate itself, the practical implications run far deeper, particularly for family trusts, bucket company arrangements, and testamentary discretionary trusts. To unpack what these reforms could mean in practice, The Education Network’s Chief Executive, Robert Clemente, sat down to discuss how the new regime is expected to operate, who is likely to be most affected, and why advisers should already be planning for change well before the proposed 1 July 2028 commencement date.

As well as the main residence often forming a large part of a deceased estate, it’s also an asset that likely has a personal attachment, as well as potential for future ongoing use by family members. This all leads to the main residence requiring careful consideration in the estate plan. With the ATO signalling increased scrutiny of post-death main residence arrangements, particularly involving life interests and trust structures, the tax outcomes are becoming less certain and more dependent on how arrangements are structured. This session looks into the options available and issues to consider.

Many law firms are aware that AML reforms are coming. Far fewer have a clear sense of what being “operationally ready” actually requires. With Tranche 2 commencing on 1 July 2026, firms providing designated services will be expected to meet AML/CTF obligations from day one. For many, this represents a fundamental shift in how risk, clients and internal processes are managed. We spoke with AML expert Katherine Shamai about where firms should be focusing their attention now, and what tends to be underestimated in the lead-up to commencement.
