Foreign income - Part year PR

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

We were previously on a 457 and became Permanent Resident (186) in January 2019. 

For  the tax return (Oz) for 18/19, do we need to declare foreign income (UK property, interest income) from July 18 or from the data we got PR visa (January 19)? 

We have an accountant but he did not seem very confident with this question!

Cheers

Coco

Hi Coco.

You declare foreign income as taxable income from the date you were granted PR.

Income prior to that date is disclosable in your tax return as Target Foreign Income: https://www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/Tax-return/2019/Tax-return/Income-test-questions-IT1-IT8/IT4-Target-foreign-income-2019/

Feel able to send a PM to me if you are minded to change your accountant.

Best regards.
