Section 101A — Income Tax Assessment Act 1936: Income of deceased received after death

(1) Where in the year of income, the trustee of the estate of a deceased person receives any amount which would have been assessable income in the hands of the deceased person if it had been received by him or her during his or her lifetime, that amount shall be included in the assessable income of that year of the trust estate and shall be deemed to be income to which no beneficiary is presently entitled. (2) Subsection (1) does not apply in relation to an amount received by the trustee of the estate of a deceased person to the extent to which, if it had been received by the deceased person during his or her lifetime, it would have been included in the assessable income of that person by virtue of section 83-10 or 83-80 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. (3) To avoid doubt, if in the year of income an amount is included in the assessable income of a deceased taxpayer under Division 82 or 302 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 in respect of a payment received by the trustee of the estate of the deceased taxpayer, that amount shall be included in the assessable income of that year of income of the trust estate. (4) This section does not apply in relation to any amount received by the trustee of the estate of a deceased person if the amount is a farm management deposit, of which the deceased person was the owner, that has become repayable.
