    Hi,

    I am confused on how the banks view this situation for eg.
    A trust with a corporate trustee owns a business. The sole director of the company has a salary of XX amount. How do banks clarify this position as an employee? or a self employed?
     
    Any comments much appreciated

    Cheers

    If the directors solo income is from this “company” then its Self employed.

    Hi Michael,

    If that is the case, hopefully changing the ownership structure of the business does not affect me. I have been self employed in the same business for more than 8 yrs I wouldn’t want to wait for at least two years to qualify for a home loan if I did change the ownership of the business

    Cheers

    That’s fine. It happens and all you need too do is explain to the bank + give in your last 2 years tax return + tax notice from the ATO and it’s all good.
