Posted by Dean McKinnon on 29 February 2024

The federal government announced recently that they would introduce amendments to disallow tax deductions for interest incurred on tax debts

  • Both the General Interest charge and Shortfall Interest Charge will not be a tax-deductible expense for the taxpayer
  • The changes are proposed to commence from 1 July 2025 – i.e. 2026 FY
  • Currently, both Interest Charges are tax deductible to the taxpayer
