Record keeping
If the fund paid interest to non-residents, it must keep a record of the following:
- name and address of recipients
- amount of interest paid or credited
- amount of tax withheld and the date it was remitted to us.
If the fund has withheld amounts from payments to non-residents the fund may need to lodge a PAYG withholding from interest, dividend and royalty payments paid to non-residents – annual report by 31 October 2013.
