Client mailings
- Annual pension review letters and PAYG summaries (if applicable)
Your clients' annual pension review letters include their annual pension amount for the 2019-2020 financial year based on their estimated account balance as at 1 July 2019 and instructions for changing their pension amount and/or frequency. PAYG payment summary and tax offset details may also be included where pension payments contained taxable income.
New pension payment amounts are calculated on 1 July, so you can view your clients' pension payment details for the 2019-2020 financial year on the AdviserNET 'Pension details' screen (Accounts>Account enquiry>Pension details).
Clients can also view their new pension payment details on Investor Online. You can quickly and easily make changes to your clients' pension payment details via the AdviserNET 'Change account details' screen (Transacting>Account options>Change account details). The last date for requesting changes to your clients' pension details (before the first payment is made in the new financial year) is 12 July 2019.
You can find sample letters and forms under Adviser guides and resources.

We send our end of financial year Personal Super Contributions Deduction Notices to clients who made personal contributions to their super account during the 2018-2019 financial year. They include the amount of their personal contributions received during the financial year remaining in their fund, important information (including eligibility criteria) to help them claim a tax deduction and a 'Notice of intent to claim or vary a deduction for personal super contributions' form.
They'll also receive our 'Completing your Notice of intent' flyer below, with handy tips to help them complete the form, if required.

Income distributions and tax components tracker – what we have/haven’t received
To help you manage your clients’ queries and expectations, our ‘Income distributions and tax components tracker’ spreadsheet shows you the income distributions and tax components we’ve already received from fund managers and what’s outstanding.
We’ll update the spreadsheet weekly.
About income distributions
The majority of income distributions are reconciled and processed in July. However, some fund managers may not make payments until significantly later and this can delay some clients' distribution payments.
About Tax Reports
To produce Tax Reports we rely on the receipt of tax components from the fund manager or share registry of every managed fund or share a client was invested in during the financial year. We anticipate sending our first tranche of Tax Reports on Wednesday 24 July 2019.
AMIT regime
We expect the majority of managed investment funds will opt in to the Attribution Managed Investment Trust (AMIT) regime in this current financial year. For information relating to the tax consequences for clients who hold investments in these funds, please refer to the Asgard Tax Guide.
