Hi

My understanding on capital gains tax is you need to declare all your assets within the first six months of living in Australia on a full time basis, after this first six months anything you bring into the country is classed as income and is taxable. If you travel over on a trip just to get your families visa stamped and then return to the UK this would not trigger the start of your six month period, it only starts when you are living in Australia and paying their taxes.

Regards

Nigel
