There are many different options to consider when deciding on an appropriate business structure for clients. The key is to ensure the structure is well thought out and works for our clients. Careful planning is required as it can be costly to unwind a structure and in some cases there can be adverse tax consequences.
In this webinar we consider the various options available and discuss the benefits and disadvantages of each option.

Working For Families - Calculating & Maximising Your Clients' Tax Credits
Tuesday 21 February, 10:30 - 11:30am
$150 + GST
Suited to: Partners, Directors, Accounting Technicians
Let Lisa Murphy and Maggie Jacques from nsaTax demystify Working For Families Tax Credits with a particular focus on the changes made to calculating Working For Families entitlements from 1 April 2011 (there are now an additional 9 categories of income which need to be taken into account in working out entitlements - trustee income, company income controlled by trusts, some fringe benefits and passive income of children to name a few).
Ensure you and your team are aware of the changes and how to make claims correctly before the IRD advise you otherwise. IRD are actively reviewing incorrect working for families credits claims, this can be an expensive exercise if an incorrect claim is made.
Examples and different scenarios will be worked through in the webinar covering how the calculations work in practice under the new rules.
Lisa and Maggie will also touch briefly on the practical side of applying for the credits including: whether you need to register, completing the form, and providing information to the IRD.
Also included is a practical discussion around entitlements, covering the various types of credits available - Family Tax Credit, In Work Tax Credit, Minimum Family Tax Credit, Parental Tax Credit and others.
Ensure your client is receiving all the credits they are entitled to.

IRD Arrears and Repayment Plans
Tuesday 28 February, 10:30am - 12pm
$200 + GST
Suited to: Partners, Directors, Accounting Technicians
When your clients are at the stage of debt remission with IRD they are already in deep and need your help to navigate their way out.
Dealing with IRD can be a David and Goliath situation, and for a small business owner, trying to negotiate with a powerful agency with deep pockets can be not only difficult but intimidating. IRD have many rights and don't necessarily follow the same processes as commercial businesses.
When assisting a client in debt to handle the IRD, you'll need to know how to interact with a variety of civil servants who know the rules but may not be easy to communicate with - what's in the text books can be very different to reality.
