The ATO has issued a Draft Taxation Determination TD 2026/D1 which looks at how inherited family homes are treated for CGT purposes. Some industry commentators have dubbed it a “death tax by stealth”, but it is a bit more complex than this. The draft guidance focuses on a specific aspect of the rules around applying the main residence exemption to inherited properties, potentially exposing deceased estates and beneficiaries to significant tax if not planned correctly. Please read our article for further details.

Electric vehicles (EVs) are no longer a niche choice. By late 2025, they account for more than 8% of new car sales in Australia, driven in no small part by generous tax incentives. One of the most significant is the Federal Government’s Electric Car Discount, introduced in mid-2022. For many businesses and employees, it has materially reduced the cost of owning or leasing an EV. If you are considering buying an EV its important to understand the rules and the potential changes ahead.

For many Australians, a holiday home does double duty. It’s a place to escape with family and friends, and during the rest of the year it’s listed on Airbnb or Stayz to help cover the costs. However, that position is now under more scrutiny than ever following the release of some new draft guidance documents by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) - TR 2025/D1, PCG 2025/D6 and PCG 2025/D7. For further details, please read our recent website article at this link.

The Government has reworked the proposed new tax — part of the Better Targeted Superannuation Concessions (BTSC) policy — attempting to make it simpler, fairer, and more practical. After a wave of industry criticism, the revised version keeps the broad policy intent (reducing tax concessions for very large balances) but removes some of the more problematic features.

What many people don’t know is that your super, and any life insurance in your super account, doesn’t automatically form part of your estate, and may therefore not be covered by your will. That’s why it’s important to consider what would happen with this money (referred to as your ‘death benefit’) when you pass away. If you don’t nominate a beneficiary, your super fund will – subject to the fund rules and super laws – decide who should receive your death benefits.



One of the most important parts of an estate plan is generally your will. A will is a legal document that governs how your estate (all the money and property you own) will be distributed when you pass away. Having a will in place can give you some certainty and peace of mind.
