Super death benefits and testamentary trusts: Clarity and concerns - SMSF Adviser
Superannuation death benefits should continue to be a legitimate source of excepted trust income distributions, despite the new testamentary trust rules, provided that superannuation death benefit proceeds are carefully traced.
Background
Recent articles have explored the 2018 federal budget announcement that “the concessional tax rates available for minors receiving income from testamentary trusts will be limited to income derived from assets that are transferred from deceased estates or the proceeds of the disposal or investment of those assets”.
In introducing the changes, the explanatory memorandum confirmed that the new measures were believed to have a “small unquantifiable gain to revenue over the forward estimates period”.
This admission (leaving aside the obvious question of why the changes were in fact needed in the first place) may indirectly provide comfort for willmakers wanting superannuation death benefits to pass to a testamentary trust.
Superannuation death benefit payments
In particular, there have been concerns that the new rules do not address how assets — such as a superannuation death benefit — that are acquired by a testamentary trust as a consequence of the willmaker’s death, but are not directly from the willmaker personally, will be treated.
Aside from the asset protection benefits offered by testamentary trusts, the issues from a tax planning perspective in relation to superannuation death benefit payments are critical.
This is because if superannuation death benefits are not caught by the new rules, future income distributions sourced from the capital contribution to the testamentary trust to an infant beneficiary will be treated as excepted trust income.
This means that instead of the normal penalty rates of tax being imposed for anything above around $416 of distributions to minors each year, children are instead treated as adults for tax purposes.
In other words, children can be entitled to all the normal individual scaled rates of taxation, meaning that for each child, each year, they can potentially receive over $20,000 completely tax-free of income sourced from the original superannuation death benefit.
Arguably, the rules in relation to superannuation death benefit payments are not as clear as they could be. This said, the preferred interpretation appears to be that so long as a death benefit is paid to the legal personal representative of an estate, before then passing to a testamentary trust, this should be sufficient to ensure that any income later derived will be excepted trust income.
In contrast, if a death benefit passes directly from a superannuation fund to a legal personal representative in their capacity as the trustee of a testamentary trust, then there is a material risk that the death benefit will be deemed to be “injected” into the testamentary trust in a manner that is caught by the new rules. This is because the payment would not strictly pass via the estate of the deceased willmaker.
Practically, most specialist holistic estate planning advisers tend to recommend against death benefit payments being made directly to any form of trust. This is due to the potential difficulties with meeting the legislative requirement for a superannuation death benefit payment to only be made to dependants or the legal personal representative.
Accessing excepted trust income
The conservative view is that the reference to legal personal representative is of the estate, not a testamentary trust established under the estate. Adopting the conservative interpretation should therefore, counterintuitively, help ensure superannuation death benefits can be the source of future concessional excepted trust income distributions.
Furthermore, superannuation death benefits have been a long-standing and arguably significant source of excepted trust income distributions for those utilising testamentary trusts as part of a holistic estate plan.
Removing the ability for superannuation death benefits to continue to be a source of excepted trust income would fundamentally contradict the admission in the explanatory memorandum that the new measures will have a small unquantifiable gain to revenue.
Tracing will be key
Particularly where there are tax dependants who are potential beneficiaries of a testamentary trust, there has been a long-standing need to ensure a “tracing” of superannuation death benefit proceeds paid to a deceased estate.
The new rules are likely to further heighten the need for methodical tracing in relation to superannuation death benefits.
For example, assuming that the original death benefit can be used to validly create excepted trust income, given the likelihood that the death benefit payment will be converted into other assets, there will be the need to demonstrate that the source of funds for those assets was the death benefit.
In turn, future income will need to be traced to the original death benefit payment in order to be able to be treated as excepted trust income.
Conclusion
To coin a related estate planning phrase, rumours of the death of testamentary trusts have been somewhat exaggerated.
While the level of ongoing income tax flexibility will undoubtedly be lessened by the new rules, the reality is that there are still significant advantages from an income tax planning perspective despite the changes — not least of which because, with proper tracing and accounting, superannuation death benefits should still be a legitimate source of excepted trust income distributions.
A number of factors combine to determine a property’s true value. Location, aspect, quality of finishes, number of bedrooms: these are some of the more tangible aspects of real estate that influence a particular dwelling’s value.
Next, you start to factor in proximity to local amenities such as public transport, cafes, schools, local parks and beaches.
Lastly, there are the ‘external’ influences, which have nothing to do with the property whatsoever, yet everything to do with its potential value.
This is the category that the coronavirus pandemic falls squarely into. A health crisis that birthed an economic catastrophe, the pandemic has robbed Australia’s real estate market of demand and well and truly taken the wind out of its sails in terms of property price growth.
Now, as the country edges back towards the ‘new normal’ with a state-by-state easing of restrictions, how will the property market be impacted?
“Generally, the outlook for inner urban established housing values is to remain reasonably stable. Predicted value falls relate to lower-value, urban fringe established housing” Scott Keck, chairman, Charter Keck Cramer
If we take the banks’ word for it, then the immediate outlook for property owners is grim. In the middle of April, for instance, Commonwealth Bank – which holds the largest slice of the Australian mortgage pie, at a value of approximately $446bn – predicted that property prices would plunge 10% within six months as a result of COVID-19’s impact on the economy.
“Australian capital city dwelling prices, led by Sydney and Melbourne, have risen strongly over the past nine months, but we expect that stellar run to end abruptly,” Gareth Aird, CBA’s head of Australian economics, told the media at the time.
“The policy response to limit the spread of COVID-19 has created a plunge in economic activity, and unemployment will spike. This will have profound short-term consequences for the housing market.”
By mid-May, CBA had revised these figures quite dramatically. The bank flagged a number of scenarios, including a “prolonged downturn” forecast, which saw GDP growth fall by 7.1% this year and a further 0.8% in 2021.
In this scenario, unemployment would average 9% this year and 8.5% next year, before easing back to 6.5% by 2022. In this worst-case situation, the bank’s economists forecast that house prices would fall by around 32% over the next three years from their March 2020 peak.
CBA is not the only bank to prepare itself for such a negative result; Westpac, too, has modelled a potential decline in values of up to 20%, while NAB has suggested that house prices could fall by 10% to 15% in 2020/21

In March 2020, the Treasurer of Australia, Josh Frydenberg, made temporary changes in recognition of the fact that the economic impacts of Covid-19 could make Australian assets vulnerable to increased foreign interest.
Australia’s FIRB is the government body that advises the Treasurer on inbound foreign investment.
The aim of the FIRB is to encourage foreign investment in Australia but also ensure this investment goes towards new build developments to support housing supply.
So, unless you’re an Australian citizen, you will most likely need to apply to FIRB before you can purchase your home.
Changes that have taken place
In March 2020, the Treasurer of Australia, Josh Frydenberg, made temporary changes in recognition of the fact that the economic impacts of Covid-19 could make Australian assets vulnerable to increased foreign interest.
“Josh Frydenberg made temporary changes to the foreign investment review framework in order to further protect Australia’s national interests," said Michelle Ciesielski, Head of Residential Research at Knight Frank in Australia.
"The changes will remain in place for the duration of the current crisis with no end date given yet,"
The key changes that affect foreign purchasers are as follows:
- All proposed foreign investments into Australia, subject to the Act, will require approval, regardless of value or the nature of the foreign investor.
- FIRB will extend timeframes for reviewing applications from 30 days to up to six months.
Daniel Ward, Associate Director,Residential - Project Marketing said Australia always has been, and is perhaps now even more so, an extremely attractive place to invest money.
"Whilst the Government was proactive and effective in dealing with the pandemic, its economy was not immune and suffered the same shocks to productivity as the rest of the world," said Mr Ward.
"The purpose of these changes is to protect Australian businesses that have been affected by the economic impacts of Covid-19, leaving them vulnerable.
"Foreign purchasers of residential property will be largely unaffected except for the increased timescale from 30 days to six months for the application.”

Mei Han Wong, Head of International Residential Sales at Knight Frank in Hong Kong specialises in the sale of Australian residential stock.
“The figures across Australia are suggesting that the slowdown in economic activity from the coronavirus has not impacted housing markets in the same way as equities," said Ms Wong.
"Australia has been gaining popularity amongst the shrewd buyers who believe in ‘bricks and mortar’ investments and are keeping a keen eye on which countries are performing best at managing the virus.
"The recent change in timescales for FIRB applications has only served to speed up the desire of buyers to act now and submit the application as soon as possible.
"Australia is already showing strong signs of outperforming other markets and the increase to a six-month timeframe for a FIRB application could mean missing out.”
The new fees were adjusted on 1st July 2020 and are as follows:

Immigration impact on housing | News
Immigration impact on housingA COVID-induced drop-off in immigration volumes is set to have "big implications" on underlying demand for residential property over the medium term, according to a new analysis. Concerns over the impact of subdued immigration on the residential property market are mounting, with travel restrictions aimed at curbing the spread of COVID-19 threatening to lock out demand for housing, exacerbating downside risks from a rising unemployment rate.
In an address to the National Press Club late last month, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the economic impact of Australia's reduced migration intake was a "key topic of discussion" between all levels of government.
The government is expecting net overseas migration to fall to approximately 34,000 in 2020-21, well below levels needed to maintain GDP growth – estimated at around 160,000 to 210,000.
According to AMP Capital chief economist Shane Oliver, the slowdown would drag Australia's population growth down from 1.4 per cent in the December quarter to 0.4 per cent, spurring a supply and demand imbalance in the housing market.
"Our rough estimate is that underlying demand for housing will be reduced by around 80,000 dwelling a year, unless a way is quickly found to allow immigrants to return," he said.
"This should be feasible with a regime of testing and quarantining – but it may be politically difficult given the weak jobs market."
ANZ Research recently stated that it expects Australia's major capitals to bear the brunt of the decline in overseas migration.
ANZ Research also touted the impact of subdued migration levels on the property market, particularly in Australia's largest capital cities.
"This drop in population growth will remove a major driver of economic growth and housing demand, at least for a period," the research group warned.
"In the year to June 2019, Sydney's population grew by 87,000, with 85 per cent of those newcomers being overseas migration," ANZ Research continued.
"In Melbourne, the numbers are also significant, with 77,000 overseas migrants accounting for 68 per cent of the total population growth of 113,000."
The economic hit from the COVID-19 crisis has already triggered declines in property prices, with the latest CoreLogic hedonic home value index revealing that national home values slipped 0.4 per cent in May – the first monthly decline since June 2019.
However, recent price falls have been milder than initially anticipated, prompting Mr Oliver to revise his forecast to reflect a softer landing for the housing market.
Mr Oliver was initially projecting a peak-to-trough decline in dwelling values of up to 20 per cent. However, according to the economist, such a scenario is now improbable.
"Our worst-case scenario for a 20 per cent decline in prices and those of others seeing 30 per cent plus falls are unlikely, thanks to support measures and the earlier reopening of the economy," he said.
"To get these worst-case scenarios would require a 'second wave' of coronavirus cases [and] so a renewed shutdown or another down leg in the economy in response to a surge in bankruptcies."
Mr Oliver's new base case is for national average prices to fall by between 5 to 10 per cent throughout 2020 and into 2021, with Australia's largest capitals to bear the brunt of the downturn.

Linda carried out the market research, and ensured we were well informed on all
aspects of the requirements to place the property on the market, all costs, and
our options for advertising and target price. We had a contract for sale within
1 week, and the successful sale followed. I would like to take the opportunity
to not only thank them, but to highly recommend them for the services they provide.

When we first joined the ranks of owning an investment property 20+ years ago we were introduced to L J Gilland Real Estate with Linda and Carlos. They have looked after a couple of different properties for us over the years in a very professional and reliable manner, even selling our first investment property for us, with a tenant in place. We have found them to be extremely helpful in the way they look after all aspects of managing our property, from finding good, reliable tenants to saving us money on maintenance, as Carlos will go above and beyond to ensure that, if he can fix a problem at minimal cost, he does. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone needing a Property Management team for their own investment property. Being a family owned and operated business allows them the ability to keep all fees and charges to a minimum.

Paula, there are no words that could describe your value to Carlos, Hazel and I for all our experiences over 20 years relationship on many levels. We would need an essay to try to explain how humbly thankful you and your family have been in our lives. You are a Star!
Only a small segment of property management companies go out of their way to help tenants with their move-in and move-out experience. Carlos, Linda and their Team pay attention to the kinds of things tenants might need when moving in or out (e.g. Carlos travels in a highly decked out ute filled with all the cleaning gear we would ever need and how to fix or rectify issues with the rental property) and they will help you feel less stressed out during the these processes, and we truly appreciate LJ Gilland Real Estate filling in those gaps.

Felkiz Navidad Carlos and Linda. Below is our review! We are ok for you to use our names and publish it 🙂
Our experience with LJ Gilland has been absolutely amazing. Their knowledge, professionalism, and guidance through the rental process is simply astonishing. They helped us in every aspect of the process of renting our first investment property and in moments it felt as if they were only focused on our property.
Carlos, Linda and their team do their best to answer every question and offer solutions to any blockers. They also take care of details as if they are owners of the property. Their advice has been invaluable and because of their relentless work, we quickly found great tenants for our property.
We are extremely pleased with their work and we fully recommend them for your property management needs.
Thanks a lot, Linda and Carlos!
Thank you, Michael and Danielita 😊 We highly value our relationship with you both, and thank you for your kind words with sincere gratitude.

I like to take this opportunity to thank you both and your team for the excellent management service.
Since moved our properties to your agent, we are really enjoying a trustable, reliable, and trouble-free property management. Especially when we have some unknowns, Carlos always patiently explains to us, or step by step teach us even let us use his own tools.
Because of your outstanding service, we will keep our properties under your management forever.
Thanks again for your excellent property management!

“It truly saddens my wife and me that our relationship with L J Gilland (Linda and Carlos) is coming to an end after a 12-year wonderful relationship.
We had a hassle-free investment for the entire time while our home was in their most capable hands. Any repairs would be handled by Carlos very quick and efficiently.
During the sale, Linda worked relentlessly with only one aim in mind, to sell our home for the best possible price and as soon as possible.
We are so proud to have been associated with Linda and Carlos especially through our recent events that have led to the sale of our home. With nothing but our best interests at heart, they managed to alleviate a huge burden on us in record time (within a week).
Thank you for being in our lives and all the fond memories associated with it.”

“Linda & Carlos @ L J Gilland real estate agents have managed our investment property from new since 2004. During which time they have always maintained full occupancy with trouble-free tenants, whilst attaining best rental returns for the area. All maintenance issues were always dealt with promptly by Carlos with a minimum of ease for us. Having decided to sell the property early last year Linda & Carlos were without a doubt the obvious agents to market and sell the property for us. Within weeks they had a buyer and sealed the best price during the current market conditions for that area at that time. Thanks again, Linda & Carlos.”

“I’ve known Linda and Carlos since 2002 and they have rented all my investment properties over the years. They do a fantastic job as husband and wife. They may well be one of the only family-orientated property agencies around. They offer that extra personal touch with their genuine approach to servicing and satisfaction and long term business culture. When it came time to sell one of my rentals it was a natural progression to list the property for sale with them. They understood the market, new my property inside out (literally), and were poised to maximize my selling target. They always get back to you and have a great team behind them, so I would highly recommend you give them a go if you’re renting or selling or looking to buy. Thanks to you and the team.”

“Found the land, designed and built the investment property & managed it at 5.3 – 7% Yield.
Choose LIndaandCarlos DeBello of LJ Gilland Real Estate, an Agent that is interested in the relationship of everyone involved and takes into account what’s best for all parties not just earning a commission.
LindaandCarlos will always have a relationship already formed with your Tenant which makes it so much easier to sell your Investment Property with a Tenant in place.
It makes sense that keeping a Tenant in place on a fixed-term lease ensures that the property is still income-producing and if your Agent knows the market well, then the rental return should look attractive to a Prospective Purchaser.
In my experience, most Agents will recommend that the Tenant be evicted and the property left vacant whilst on the market. This is poor advice as there is no income generated on the property whilst on the market for sale, and it will not look appealing to Prospective Investors.
Choose LJ Gilland Real Estate to sell your Tenanted property. If your property is managed by another Agent and you want to sell, transfer to LJ Gilland Real Estate and we will remove the hassle from sales and rentals aiming at the best result possible in any challenging real estate market, whilst making selling a sweet, smooth and nurturing experience for all involved.”

“Interesting experience
A totally different sales approach to what I was accustomed to, although I have not been in the home buying or selling for almost three decades.
New age so all advertising is done via internet media.
It was a team effort by both Linda & Carlos that got the sale through.
A family business that put in the effort for their clients.

When we first joined the ranks of owning an investment property 20+ years ago we were introduced to L J Gilland Real Estate with Linda and Carlos. They have looked after a couple of different properties for us over the years in a very professional and reliable manner, even selling our first investment property for us, with a tenant in place. We have found them to be extremely helpful in the way they look after all aspects of managing our property, from finding good, reliable tenants to saving us money on maintenance, as Carlos will go above and beyond to ensure that, if he can fix a problem at minimal cost, he does. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone needing a Property Management team for their own investment property. Being a family owned and operated business allows them the ability to keep all fees and charges to a minimum.
LJ Gilland Real Estate Pty Ltd-http://ljgrealestate.com.au/testimonials/ (owner)
4 weeks agoPaula, there are no words that could describe your value to Carlos, Hazel and I for all our experiences over 20 years relationship on many levels. We would need an essay to try to explain how humbly thankful you and your family have been in our lives. You are a Star!
Only a small segment of property management companies go out of their way to help tenants with their move-in and move-out experience. Carlos, Linda and their Team pay attention to the kinds of things tenants might need when moving in or out (e.g. Carlos travels in a highly decked out ute filled with all the cleaning gear we would ever need and how to fix or rectify issues with the rental property) and they will help you feel less stressed out during the these processes, and we truly appreciate LJ Gilland Real Estate filling in those gaps.

4 weeks agoJennifer, wow! Thank you so much for this great 5-star review. We really appreciate you being a loyal customer and helping to share the word about us. We’re here for you anytime.
Felkiz Navidad Carlos and Linda. Below is our review! We are ok for you to use our names and publish it 🙂
Our experience with LJ Gilland has been absolutely amazing. Their knowledge, professionalism, and guidance through the rental process is simply astonishing. They helped us in every aspect of the process of renting our first investment property and in moments it felt as if they were only focused on our property.
Carlos, Linda and their team do their best to answer every question and offer solutions to any blockers. They also take care of details as if they are owners of the property. Their advice has been invaluable and because of their relentless work, we quickly found great tenants for our property.
We are extremely pleased with their work and we fully recommend them for your property management needs.
Thanks a lot, Linda and Carlos!
Thank you, Michael and Danielita 😊 We highly value our relationship with you both, and thank you for your kind words with sincere gratitude.

“Hi Linda and Carlos,
I like to take this opportunity to thank you both and your team for the excellent management service.
Since moved our properties to your agent, we are really enjoying a trustable, reliable, and trouble-free property management. Especially when we have some unknowns, Carlos always patiently explains to us, or step by step teach us even let us use his own tools.
Because of your outstanding service, we will keep our properties under your management forever.
Thanks again for your excellent property management!
Steven Xia and Linda Lu”

“Wonderful service and excellent outcomes across the board. Linda and Carlos have been a pleasure to work with during the 10 years they managed our investment property, including the eventual sale. Engaging and personable, Linda and Carlos are always professional and consistently provide excellent, attentive service. I love the way they keep everyone informed in a timely manner and always seek the best outcomes for all parties involved. It’s been a wonderful association and I couldn’t be more enthusiastic about recommending their services.”

“It truly saddens my wife and me that our relationship with L J Gilland (Linda and Carlos) is coming to an end after a 12-year wonderful relationship.
We had a hassle-free investment for the entire time while our home was in their most capable hands. Any repairs would be handled by Carlos very quick and efficiently.
During the sale, Linda worked relentlessly with only one aim in mind, to sell our home for the best possible price and as soon as possible.
We are so proud to have been associated with Linda and Carlos especially through our recent events that have led to the sale of our home. With nothing but our best interests at heart, they managed to alleviate a huge burden on us in record time (within a week).
Thank you for being in our lives and all the fond memories associated with it.”

“Linda & Carlos @ L J Gilland real estate agents have managed our investment property from new since 2004. During which time they have always maintained full occupancy with trouble-free tenants, whilst attaining best rental returns for the area. All maintenance issues were always dealt with promptly by Carlos with a minimum of ease for us. Having decided to sell the property early last year Linda & Carlos were without a doubt the obvious agents to market and sell the property for us. Within weeks they had a buyer and sealed the best price during the current market conditions for that area at that time. Thanks again, Linda & Carlos.”

“I’ve known Linda and Carlos since 2002 and they have rented all my investment properties over the years. They do a fantastic job as husband and wife. They may well be one of the only family-orientated property agencies around. They offer that extra personal touch with their genuine approach to servicing and satisfaction and long term business culture. When it came time to sell one of my rentals it was a natural progression to list the property for sale with them. They understood the market, new my property inside out (literally), and were poised to maximize my selling target. They always get back to you and have a great team behind them, so I would highly recommend you give them a go if you’re renting or selling or looking to buy. Thanks to you and the team.”

Very
recently we rented this Caboolture home without advertising, START <To
everyone at L J Gilland Real Estate and review readers,
Over
the past 3 years we have been 'customers' after referral from a work colleague.
As
a current customer, we can recommend the services of this real estate.
Why
we hear you say?
Well
- when they make a time to meet, they are there on time.
Communications
- both in person and via Emails are professional, courteous and respectful.
Legals
- staff are aware of the laws relating to rentals - for both owners and
tenants. This is very important with recent 'Covid 19' alterations to the laws.
Carlos
and his workshop on wheels can be relied upon to fix all those 'little things'
that make a difference (without overpriced charges) - which is truly
appreciated.
Value
- In comparison to other companies, you can't go wrong.
In
a nutshell, this is a team who 'know the ropes', who care for your property for
you, who present it and promote it in a professional way, who observe and
follow laws related to rental.
Thank
you for reading
Sincerely
Bob
and Carole
