Frequently asked questions, answered.
- What are the basic requirements for setting up a SMSF?
A SMSF can have up to 4 members and no member can be the employee of another member, unless they are related. WIth limited exceptions, every member must be a trustee and in the case of a corporate trustee, every member must be a director. Conversely, with limited exceptions, every trustee, or in the case of a corporate trustee, every director of the trustee company, must be a member.
- Can a member be under the age of 18?
Yes, but they cannot be a trustee (until they turn 18). Either the member's legal personal representative or parent will need to act as a trustee on their behalf.
- Can I have a corporate trustee and member(s) under age of 18?
No, this is not permitted as you must be 18 or over to act as a Director of a company (and all members must be directors of the corporate trustee).
- Who drafted the Compleo SMSF deed?
The Compleo SMSF package has been written by Norman Waterhouse Lawyers, a leading law firm. The fund deed is written in plain English, is current with today's legislation and is periodically reviewed to keep up to date with changes in the law.
- Do you offer a deed update service?
Before the end of 2008 we will be launched a deed update service. We will notify all customers who purchase SMSF's from us when we have updated our deed, and offer you the opportunity to update your deed through a very simple online process.
- Can I make changes if I have made a mistake?
Yes, but only up until the deed is signed and executed. After this we can't allow any further edits to your document.
- What format are the documents?
All the documents are in PDF format, with the exception of the Investment & Reserves Management Strategy documents (these are provided in Microsoft Word format as they require completion from the trustee).
- Do you have a sample of the SMSF deed I can view?
Yes but you'll need to sign up (it's free) first. Once signed in, you'll be able to see the sample SMSF deed from the Sample tab above.
- What payment methods do you accept?
At present only Visa or Mastercard. Shortly you can apply for an account and pay by monthly invoice.
- Do you provide ongoing management services for the SMSF?
No we do not. You will need to seek the services of a suitably qualified professional to assist you with this.
