The world around us continues to change at a rapid pace from COVID-19 impacts, remote and flexible work arrangements, new technology and benefit offerings. FBT practitioners and the ATO are having to interpret legislation to arrangements and benefits which were not contemplated in the 80s when the FBT legislation was first enacted. This has led to several emerging issues and ATO guidance releases which are summarised in the update article below.
Join Thomson Reuters and KPMG as we discuss this further.

Hinweis der Redaktion
Before we get started I’d like to run through housekeeping and features of the console. Please ensure you have your adobe flash player enabled and volume up. On the left hand side you will find a list of complimentary resources, below that is a Q&A window where you can submit questions to myself. No one else will be able to see the questions you submit so there is no such thing as a silly question. On the right side of the console is also a mini survey, we value your feedback to further approve our events for the future so please fill out these questions. What you see on the webinar console are also movable and resizable to fit your screen. One last thing I’d like to mention, if you experience any delays or are having technical issues, please press F5 to refresh the window, or submit your issue in the Q&A box.
