Multi-rate PIEs must send investor statements to their investors. The statements show the investor’s income or loss, tax credits, and any distributions.

You do not need to send us copies of the statements – they are for investors only.

Statement due dates

You must send an investor statement for each tax year by 1 of the following dates. Check which date suits your situation.

31 May after the end of the tax year

Use 31 May if all the following apply.

  • The multi-rate PIE is not a superannuation fund or retirement savings scheme (not locked-in).
  • The multi-rate PIE is either a quarterly or exit PIE, or a provisional tax PIE with an income year ending before 31 May.

30 June after the end of the tax year

Use 30 June if all the following apply.

  • The multi-rate PIE is a superannuation fund or retirement savings scheme like KiwiSaver scheme (a locked-in fund).
  • The multi-rate PIE is either a quarterly or exit PIE, or a provisional tax PIE with an income year ending before 30 June.

Within 2 months after the end of the multi-rate PIE’s income year

Use this date if the multi-rate PIE is a provisional tax PIE with a balance date later than 30 June.

When an investor exits a PIE that files returns quarterly

In this situation, the multi-rate PIE can choose either:

  • 30 June
  • by the end of the month following the quarter in which the investor exits.

This includes situations where a voluntary payment is made for the exited investor.
