AFAIK the Budget is in October this year and I think an increase in the CAT rate and a decrease in the tax free thresholds are inevitable. As always, changes will come into effect on the day of the Budget. So, thinking ahead, if one receives a gift in the form of a cheque or draft what is the date for determining CAT liability
-date of cheque
-date cheque given/received
-date cheque lodged in a financial institution
-date cleared by financial institution
Thanks
