We are aware some information is not pre-populating from the previous years' income tax returns into the following years' returns.

This issue affects gateway services pre-pop service and the Income API.

Information not populating includes:

excess imputation credits brought forward
losses brought forward from previous years
residential rental deductions brought forward
research and development tax credits brought forward.

We are working to resolve this issue. In the meantime, you can get the information from last year's return and add it to the current year's return before submitting it to us.

Returns completed in myIR are not affected.
