Raiz makes smart investing simple, but when it comes to tax time, calculating your Capital Gains Tax discounts can be confusing because of the many small buys and sells involved.
RaizReport simplifies this by carefully organising your transactions, applying the correct tax rules, and calculating any potential capital gains discounts you may be eligible for. This way, you get clear, easy-to-understand reports that make it simpler to discuss your investment with your accountant when preparing your tax return.
RaizReport is not professional tax, legal or financial advice. It is intended solely to provide basic CGT estimates for Raiz Invest accounts and is provided “as is”.
By using RaizReport, you acknowledge and agree that we accept no liability for any reliance placed on the results displayed in, or conclusions drawn from, any reports generated.
For calculation purposes, the report assumes you are an individual who is an Australian resident for tax purposes and who is eligible for the 50% long-term capital gains tax discount.
While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure accuracy, the results will not reflect personal tax events outside the CSV data provided. You should independently verify the information generated and seek advice from a registered tax agent or the Australian Taxation Office, as tax laws are subject to change.
Personal data uploaded to RaizReport is processed solely for the purpose of generating your CGT report. We do not retain, store or otherwise use this data beyond the immediate generation of the report.

RaizReport is an app designed to help Raiz Invest users calculate if they have any available capital gains discounts generated by their buy and sell transactions. It does this by organising your transaction data using the First In First Out (FIFO) method and applying relevant tax rules automatically.

No. This app is designed to help with basic CGT calculations. You should always consult a registered tax agent or accountant for official tax advice.
Follow this step-by-step workflow to generate accurate CGT reports for your Raiz portfolios:
Raiz issues Annual Tax Statements around the third week of July each year.
📊 Workflow overview: CSV files → FIFO matching → current & carried-forward losses applied → CGT discount applied → consolidation combines portfolio-level totals for a complete tax view.
It’s recommended to generate your CGT report annually for each financial year prior to completing that year’s tax return.
Yes, the report options allow you to select an Annual CGT Summary report for a single financial year or all financial years. The CGT Schedule will always show all financial years, as it shows how to apply any carry-forward losses from previous periods.
The app processes one main Raiz portfolio CSV file at a time. You can generate reports for multiple Raiz accounts by uploading each account’s CSV separately. If you have more than one account that would be reported on the same tax return, the figures from each report will need to be combined manually to calculate your overall capital gain or loss.
If you have opened a Raiz Jar or Raiz Kids account under your main portfolio, you can add the CSVs for those into your report, and the tool will automatically produce a consolidated report to help at tax time.
Yes, the app is responsive and works on both desktop and mobile browsers.
Your transaction data is processed only within your browser during report generation. No data is stored or transmitted to any servers.
Yes, all processing is done locally in your browser. No data is sent to, or stored on, external servers.
Yes, you need an internet connection to load the app, but your data is processed locally in the browser without uploading any data to a server.
The Raiz Invest app provides your transaction data in CSV format, which can be used directly in this app without any modifications.
To access your transaction data for your main Raiz Invest account:
To access your transaction data for a Raiz Jar account:
To access your transaction data for a Raiz Kids account:
Remember: Download statements for all portfolios, active or closed. Even if an account has been closed for years, any unused capital losses from that account can reduce tax on gains in other portfolios. Missing a portfolio could result in inaccurate CGT calculations and potentially missed tax offsets.
Tip: While in the statements section of Jar and Kids accounts, also download your Tax Report statement for each account.
If you attempt to upload a CSV which is not in the correct format, the app may indicate that the file "does not appear to be a CSV of 'All Trades to Date'".
To resolve, ensure you have not modified the CSV file downloaded from Raiz, as spreadsheet apps can inadvertently change formatting. If issues persist, request a fresh CSV from the Raiz app and try again.
Your Raiz Annual Tax Statement is typically available in the third week of July, shortly after the end of the Australian financial year (30 June). Raiz releases the statement once all transactions for the financial year are finalised.
Tip: Ensure your email details are up to date in the Raiz app before the end of the financial year to receive your statement promptly.
Tip: If you have Jar or Kids accounts, remember to download tax statements for each account from their respective statement sections.
The 18H – Total Current Year Capital Gains shows the total capital gains from selling investments during the financial year, before any deductions such as the CGT discount.
If the 18H amount is in brackets, it represents a capital loss rather than a gain. This can happen due to:
Capital losses can be offset against other capital gains in the same financial year or carried forward to offset future gains.
CGT events are triggered whenever you sell investments, including:
Raiz calculates the total capital gains at 18H but does not calculate any CGT discount.
Raiz cannot determine whether your gains qualify for the 50% CGT discount because:
As a result, the Net Capital Gain (18A) will be blank, and you must calculate any eligible CGT discount yourself.
Raiz cannot automatically calculate your net capital gain because it does not know:
Calculating CGT discounts for micro-investing apps like Raiz is time-consuming because:
This website tool can help simplify the calculation, track capital losses, and apply CGT discounts for you.
Raiz provides all necessary information in your Annual Tax Statement but does not pre-fill your tax return. This allows you to review your details and ensure accuracy when entering data into the ATO’s myTax system.
Note: If unsure how to enter these amounts into myTax, consult a tax professional or contact the ATO for guidance.
The app assumes you are eligible for a Capital Gains Tax (CGT) discount on the basis that you are an individual and an Australian resident for tax purposes.
According to the ATO, the requirement for the CGT discount is that you must own the asset for at least 12 months, excluding both the day of acquisition and the day of the CGT event (sale).
The app automatically applies the 50% CGT discount on eligible long-term capital gains according to these ATO rules.
The calculation order follows ATO rules:
Yes, the app generates an easy-to-read, styled PDF report which you can file for your records or share with your accountant.
The consolidated report includes:
A stock split occurs when a company increases its number of shares by issuing more to existing shareholders (forward split), usually to reduce the share price.
It is expressed as a ratio, like 2:1 or 3:1:
A reverse stock split consolidates shares to reduce the total number, increasing the share price proportionally. Example: 1:2 — you receive 1 share for every 2 owned, valued as the 2 previous shares combined.
The app supports all currently known stock splits, ensuring FIFO matching is maintained and cost bases are adjusted correctly for CGT calculations.
If your "All Trades to Date" CSV contains a stock split unknown to the app, you will be notified when loading your file. Report generation will pause, and you will be prompted to contact support. Once verified, the app will be updated, and you can re-run your report.
Stock splits are applied per portfolio, ensuring the integrity of each portfolio's FIFO matching before any consolidation occurs.
Yes. The app supports main Raiz Invest portfolios as well as Jars and Kids portfolios.
Important: You must include CSVs for all portfolios (including closed Jars or Kids portfolios) to ensure consolidated totals are accurate. Missing portfolios can result in incorrect CGT calculations.
The 18H – Total Current Year Capital Gains figure on your Raiz Annual Tax Statement may differ from what is shown during the Statement Cross Check process because it can include amounts that are not directly tied to your own buy or sell transactions. These amounts are called Unclassified Distributions or Unclassified Capital Gains Adjustments.
Unclassified distributions can arise from:
For tax purposes, these unclassified amounts are handled conservatively:
This is also why the Statement Cross Check process is important: you cannot rely on the CSV file alone to identify all capital gains that may be applicable for your tax reporting.
Example 1 – Positive Unclassified Distribution:
Component | Amount (AUD) |
---|---|
Short-term capital gains | $200 |
Long-term capital gains | $100 |
Unclassified distribution | $50 |
Capital losses | -$50 |
Total (matches 18H) | $300 |
Example 2 – Negative Unclassified Distribution:
Component | Amount (AUD) |
---|---|
Short-term capital gains | $200 |
Long-term capital gains | $100 |
Unclassified distribution | -$30 |
Capital losses | -$50 |
Total (matches 18H) | $220 |
In both examples:
Key Takeaway: The 18H figure may include items beyond your direct buy/sell transactions. These unclassified amounts are handled in a way that ensures tax compliance and the most conservative treatment possible. This is also why the Statement Cross Check process exists — to ensure all applicable capital gains are correctly identified for reporting, beyond what the CSV alone can show.
Consolidation combines multiple Raiz portfolios (main, Jar, or Kids accounts) into a single tax view for each financial year while keeping each portfolio’s transactions separate.
The consolidated report includes:
This gives you a complete view of your tax position across all Raiz accounts without merging the underlying investment transactions.
