Amounts are entered in the worksheet xT for each beneficiary.
This section is to be completed by all closely held trusts, including family trusts that are subject to the TFN withholding rules for closely held trusts that have:
Show an amount at label S where you have made one or more distributions during the income year that are wholly or partly from the ordinary or statutory income of the trust for that year and the total of those distributions exceeds the beneficiary's share of the net income of the trust. Only include at label S the amount by which these distributions exceed the beneficiary's share of the net income.
Show at T the amounts withheld from payments or distributions to the beneficiary, where the beneficiary's TFN was not provided to you. Do not show at T the beneficiary's share of amounts that were reported at Item 8 label O, these are included at Item 55 label O.
See TFN withholding rules for closely held trusts in the ATO Trust return instructions for more information on this topic.
Deceased estate trusts are excluded from the TFN withholding rules up until the end of the year of income in which the fifth anniversary of the individual's death occurred. After this, the trustee will need to consider whether they will be subject to the TFN withholding rules. To find out more about these rules, refer to TFN withholding for closely held trusts on the ATO website.
