Common questions
SMSF Accounting FAQs
Can Daintree tell me whether I should establish an SMSF?
SMSF suitability and personal financial-product advice must come from an appropriately licensed adviser. Daintree's accounting service does not replace that advice.
Does an SMSF need an independent audit every year?
SMSFs generally require an annual audit by an approved SMSF auditor before the annual return is lodged. The exact requirements should be confirmed for your fund.
Can Daintree prepare the accounts and perform the audit?
Independence requirements apply. The accounting and audit roles must be structured appropriately, and an independent approved SMSF auditor may be required.
What records do trustees need to retain?
Requirements vary by record type. Common records include bank and investment statements, contracts, contribution evidence, pension documents, minutes and expense support.
Trustee and advice responsibilities
Trustees remain responsible for their fund. Establishment, investment strategy, insurance and financial-product advice may require an appropriately licensed adviser. Annual independent audit requirements also apply.
