How to Document Rent Relief for SMSF property leased to Related Party due to COVID 19

 

Trustees of SMSFs that own property leased to related parties may be finding that they are falling behind in paying rent to their SMSF's under the lease conditions due to the economic downturn arising from COVID-19.

The tax office has provided a practical approach of broadly not applying compliance resources to this issue for FY2020 and FY2021 where the SMSF Trustee has offered rent relief to their tenants, including if the tenant is a related party of the SMSF. However from a legal perspective, if these matters are not carefully documented, SMSFs and their trustees/directors could potentially face the risk of significant penalties under the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (Cth) (‘SISA’) and the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Regulations 1994 (Cth) (‘SISR’).

 

Templates will be provided on how to complete your
- Application for Rent Relief

How CPD Works

ASIC Approved SMSF Auditors

Section 128F(a) of SIS Act : An approved SMSF Auditor must: (a) complete the continuing professional development requirements prescribed by the regulation.

SIS Reg 9A.04 : (2) The approved SMSF auditor must undertake at least 120 hours of continuing professional development every 3 years.

(3) The development must: (a) include 30 hours of development about superannuation at least 8 hours of which is development about auditing of self managed superannuation funds; and

(b) be development that could reasonably be expected to enhance an approved SMSF auditor's technical skills or professional service delivery.

 

AFSL Holders - FASEA Requirements

The Corporations Act 2017 (the Act) requires that all individuals identified as a ‘relevant provider’ are required to meet the requirements for continuing professional development set by the Standards Body (s 921B(5)). The Act requires the Standards Body to set requirements for continuing professional development in relation to each CPD year of a financial services licensee (s 921U(2)(iv)).

Part 7.6 of theCorporations Act 2001 Corporations (Relevant Providers Continuing Professional Development Standard) Determination 2018

The minimum number of hours of qualifying CPD activities that a relevant provider must complete during a CPD year is 40. If the relevant provider has a responsible licensee, at least 70% of the minimum number of hours must be spent on qualifying CPD activities approved by the licensee.

Note 1: This means that  any AFSL holder working full time at least 28 hours will have to be spent on approved activities.
