Is my daughter liable for tax?

Our Experts Answer:
If your daughter is the registered and beneficial owner of the property and has rented the property she is liable for tax in NZ on the net rental income. If your daugher is holding the property on trust for you then you are liable for tax in NZ on the rent your daugher pays you plus the rent from the other unit. Despite being non resident you are still liable for tax in NZ on income derived in NZ.
