NewzThe Australian government has announced a policy adjustment to address concerns regarding the so-called 'widow tax' following public criticism of its proposed negative gearing reforms. This change is part of a broader consultative process currently being undertaken by the government.
In addition to the widow tax fix, the government is reviewing potential carve-outs and modifications to its capital gains tax system. These consultations specifically cover newly constructed homes, as well as housing initiatives focused on affordability and disability support.
