    Too bad they dropped the rebate from $4k to $2k on 1/7/2023 but doesn't sound like a bad deal at all.

    Not sure why BoM and brokers are having this disclaimer:

    "Tax consequences may arise from this promotion for investors and customers should seek independent advice on any taxation matters.". It makes people nervous.

    There isn't. https://community.ato.gov.au/s/question/a0J9s0000001Dx8/p000…

      To cover themselves. I can imagine someone who did an interest in advance and then forgetting about it.

      • Even that, interest in advance is tax deductible so the worst outcome would be the taxpayer forgot to claim it. Win for Govt!

        The way this is being framed is as if you get cashback, be ready to declare it as income in your TR.

        • I meant they did an IIA on the old loan in June 2023, then forgot about it and refinanced in August 2023.

          Paid interest for the loan for a year but then refinanced. Potential complaints and tax implications.

  • Question for OP - how is the 0.60% broker cashback calculated?

    Based on the loan balance at the time the loan is taken, or at time of calculation? And does an offset account balance reduce the cashback?

    • Hi shake

      Our broker cash rebates are based on the balance as per each bank's time calculation. This will be the delta of any offset or redraw available. The time that the bank does the calculation is usually a random date within 1 month of settlement and again at a random date 6 - 12 months. The bank will inform us brokers of any difference as well as pay.

      • One question:
        Why you have 2years period? Will bank pay the commission only for every 12months first years or upfront ? Incase after 1 year your customer asking you to move different bank, is that allowed again ?
