WA FWC General Protections - Deeds, Tax, Centrelink, Child Support Implications

[Jenny453]

Deed of Settlement. Where is it possible to find out how a deed of settlement and compensation paid under general protections FW Act interacts with tax and centrelink. And whether a payment can effect my child support.

 

[Rod]

Need to look at how the payment is characterised in the deed. Can be income, ETP, hurt and distress.

The type of payment determines whether tax is paid.
