You can read more about calculating deductible FMIS payments at Appendix 2: Forestry managed investment schemes.
If the SMSF pays retirement phase superannuation income stream benefits to a member, refer to How expenses are treated when an SMSF has ECPI before you claim a deduction for the SMSF's FMIS expenses.

Write at U2 the total amount of payments made under an FMIS that are not deductible The SMSF cannot claim a deduction for certain excluded payments. For more information see Appendix 2: Forestry managed investment schemes
The SMSF cannot claim a deduction for payments if the income from the FMIS is exempt income, such as exempt current pension income.
For information on the SMSF's eligibility to claim deductions, if the SMSF incurred expenses to do with a collapsed agribusiness managed investment scheme, then see Collapse and restructure of agribusiness managed investment schemes – participant information.
Example 'SMSF with no ECPI': FMIS expenses
SMSF U has no exempt current pension income, foreign income or non-arm's length income.
SMSF U is entitled to a deduction of $800 for payments made to an FMIS in 2020–21.
