Goodwin Chivas & Co. Newsletter, February 2013

Welcome to our February newsletter and a belated Happy New Year! We hope that you are well and truly into the swing of 2013 by now. 

Just in time for back-to-school, this month we look at the Schoolkids Bonus and how you and your family can access this government assistance. 

article, What happens to my super when I die provides an overview of who can receive death benefits and how they are paid. 

Following on from our warning about the new Director Penalty Regime in August, we outline the important dates that company directors need to be aware of relating to SGC obligations for employees. 

We also look at the need for care and caution around investing in property via a Self Managed Super Fund.
