INCOME TAX ASSESSMENT ACT 1997 - SECT 304.20

Excess payments from release authorities--paying debt account discharge liability for a superannuation interest

  (1)   Despite section   303 - 20, a * superannuation benefit that you receive (or are taken to receive), paid in relation to a release authority issued to you in respect of a * release entitlement you have, is assessable income to the extent (if any) that it exceeds the amount mentioned in subsection   (2).

Note:   Section   303 - 20 makes superannuation benefits received under a release authority non - assessable non - exempt income.

  (2)   The amount is the amount of the * release entitlement, reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of any * superannuation benefit that was not assessable income and not * exempt income under a previous operation of section   303 - 20 of this Act in relation to that release entitlement.
