    Hi All,

    I've set up a family trust for property/shares (123 Trust) with a corporate trustee (ABC pty ltd).

    I have a bank account - ABC pty Ltd ATF 123 Family Trust.

    I have a CommSuck (ahem, sorry, I mean CommSec) account in Name of ABC pty Ltd ATF 123 Family Trust.

    Which TFN number do I use for CommSec and the Share Registries? the TFN of the Company, or for the TFN of the Family Trust? I'm a bit confused, which isn't unusual really :)

    Any advice would be much appreciated,

    Cheers,
    James
