We supplied the new structure within 24 hours with all necessary ATO registrations and is now a self-employed owner driver operating through a family trust.

The Family Trust Structure

The family trust structure with corporate trustee met the requirements of the contracting transport company and met the personal tax needs for Jack and his family.
