Can anyone point me to information about taxation, or not, of monetary gifts to siblings. I can't find anything on the ATO site, but that doesn't mean any gift would be tax-free! For background, the gift would be from a foreign discretionary family trust, taxed in my hands, as the lower-paid sibling, and then a portion sent, hopefully tax-free, to my brother. Dallee
We do not have gift tax in Australia, so if it is a bona fide gift, then it will be tax free to the recipient. You will be fine under your scenario.
