If you don’t know your Tax File Number, look at a recent ATO Notice of Assessment or other correspondence, it generally has your TFN in the top right hand corner.
If the property is owned by a Trust, select the trustee’s entity type (Individual or Company). The ATO issues the clearance certificate to the trustee (not the trust), and each trustee must apply for their own certificate.

For transactions involving trusts or superannuation funds, applicants should not use the "other" entity type and doing so may result in delays in processing the application. "Other" entities are where the title holder is neither an individual nor a company.

Is your company controlled by another company?

Make sure you answer these questions on behalf of the vendor (taxpayer). The tax return lodgments referred to below relate to your returns that have a lodgment due date earlier than the date of submitting this form.

Has your residency status changed since your last tax return or will it change before you sell the property?
Have you lodged a tax return for the last two years?
Are you holding the property on behalf of a foreign resident or on behalf of other entities that include a foreign resident?
