All Topics / Legal & Accounting / Rental Income for tax inclusion
Hi all,
I am expecting my rent for the last fortnight to hit my account tonight or tomorrow morning. If it hits my account after midnight June 30 does it get included in the next financial year?I would have thought so.
Cheers
Jamie

If you have a property manager and they receive the rent by 30th June but don't put it in your bank account until 1st July (just to use an example date) then you must include the rent received by the 30th June in the 2010-2011 tax return. This is because the agent is acting on your behalf so it is when they receive it, not when you receive it.
I always work on the premise that if it hasn’t hit my account ie on the june statement, I haven’t received it.
