Fund Establishment - Information

Thank you for the opportunity to establish your Self Managed Superannuation Fund.

To enable us to establish your SMSF we will need information from each of the proposed fund members/trustees.

In additional to the information requested, we will also need some documents to prove your identity, before the establishment of your fund. The required proof of ID is listed in this link: 100 Points of ID

We have an obligation to identify you and your fund for the Australian Taxation Office. You will receive a link (and we will send a separate email to confirm that the link has been forwarded to you) that will require you both to open and complete the identification process. It is important that this is completed so that we can liaise with the Australian Taxation Office on behalf of the fund.

Once the completed and signed document has been received, we will provide the establish documents for the fund and the corporate trustee (if applicable). Please carefully check and sign all the necessary documents and email a copy to admin@supermanager.com.au.

The SMSF Establishment pack includes the below listed documents.

  • SMSF Trust Deed
  • Product Disclosure Statement
  • Trustee Minutes establishing the Fund
  • Member Applications
  • Binding death benefit nomination
  • Trustee and member registers
  • ATO trustee declaration form

If you have requested to setup a corporate trustee, you will also receive the below documents to establish the corporate trustee company.

  • Certificate of registration
  • Company constitution
  • Director, public officer & secretary consent
  • Share application
  • Director minutes

Upon receipt of the signed establishment documents, we will be able to order the Tax File Number (TFN) and Australian Business Number (ABN) for the fund and complete any registrations eg. Goods and Services Tax (GST) etc. We are unable to order a TFN and ABN until we have received a complete signed set of establishment documents.
