A written agreement brings a partnership into being. Once done, you will then need to:
If your partnership has revenue in excess of $75,000 per year, it may also be necessary to register for GST.
A partnership ceases to exist every time there is a change in membership. If you wish to add or remove individuals from the partnership, you must dissolve the present partnership and create a new one. This is done by executing a new partnership agreement.
Generally no. A partnership is not an effective vehicle for holding or amassing appreciating assets. This is because a change in the Partnership has certain capital gains tax implications.
Partnerships can be a good tax structure to minimise tax, because a partner can use any losses to offset income earned from other sources.
