FIF tax on Hatch
Hey guys, just trying to get my head around some scenarios on FIF rules in NZ.
Scenario 1:
-
In year 1, I deposit 60k into Hatch and obviously i ll need to pay FIF tax because its over 50k into Money market fund. In this year, I didnt invest in anything just purely deposit.
-
In year 2, still not buying any stock. Does FIFstill applies? If so, doesnt your money just keep getting eaten away until you are below 50k??!!
Scenario 2:
1. In year 1, I deposit 45k into Hatch and buy some stocks. Top up another 10k during the year and now i ll need to pay FIF because its over the 50k limit.
-
In year 2, no deposit or any actions at all in Hatch. Does FIF rule still appies?
thanks!
