My car is held as security against a personal loan and we want to sell the car. The personal loan is for 20, 000 and the value on the car is only 3000. They are saying no. Can they make us keep the car?

My partner and I live together in my PPOR. The house is in my name but we both contribute to the mortgage payments which are in the form of a loan from my parents. We both pay the mortgage payments directly into the loan account.

Just wondering if the money he contributes is counted as taxable income? Could you break this down for me please?

Best,

Im 30 and work in a secure full time permanent role as a HR Manager.
I have $60,000 deposit and have found a place that ticks all my boxes for $520,000
My monthly salary is $5377
Repayments would be $514 a week approx
I have no other depts or loans.
Should I take the plunge and buy or keep saving.

The place is two bedroom, close to a train station 300 metres from the beach in Aspendale Vic.

Are those repayments sustainable for a person on a single income?

I am a practice manager contemplating buying a vet practice in partnership with a Vet friend. We are currently looking into how our income should be split and paid. We are going into this venture as 50-50 partners - could you please advise on what the recommended or appropriate wages/income split would be, given we will both be engaged in different roles within the business, of which one is usually paid higher than the other?
Thanks

Hi
I am a Director and co-founder of a small start up business. My business partner and I hold the shares 55 to 45 (me). My business partner is the Managing Director and invests 20 hours+ each week operationally. I invest around 5 hours. My question pertains to how to best capture the Directors' lost time in a business without revenue at this stage. Should we come up with a seperate agreement to pay out once profitable or journal in balance sheet?

I am starting a travel blog and hoping to use it as a tax write off. I'm currently spending approximately $40k a year on travel and thought that if I start a business I might be able to claim some of the expenses on tax. My question is, what company structure best suits my needs?

Mum is 74 years old,living alone at home, but needs to go into a high care nursing home. She only receives a minor part pension as she has approximately $400,000 in a super based managed fund.
She was told that when she goes into the nursing home she will loose all pension/care benefits as her home will be treated as an asset in full and she will have to pay maximum fees. Can she sell up and gift some funds to her children? Centerlink said 5 yrs still her asset, but what about after?re-assess?

I have been separated for 2 years, and have just sold the family home. I believe a 50/50 split of the equity is fair but my estranged partner believes she is entitled to more as my father passed away 10 months ago and she is wanting some inheritance as well. My fathers estate is still in probate and overseas. I am self employed, pay maintenance for our child, the ex does not work and has never worked.
Does my ex have claim on my future inheritance, or for a higher split in the equity?

My mother has passed intestate and her superfund has determined to pay 100% of her super to her spouse, my step father. My step father intends dividing the super keeping 20% for himself and paying my mother's 4 adult children each 20%.
Can you advise whether it is appropriate I consider this as gifted funds and do not pay tax on my 20%, or should I pay the ATO the applicable tax which I believe is 15% of the inherited super funds?
