For financial years ending after 30 June 2008 DMFs must lodge their reporting forms at the latest by 4 months after the DMF financial year end.
Audit requirements
The reporting form does not need to be audited.

It is the responsibility of the board or trustee or senior management of the DMF to ensure that the information lodged with APRA is accurate and complete.
