You will meet the results test in an income year if for at least 75% of the PSI of the individual doing the personal services work, having regard to the custom or work practice when work of that kind is performed:

the PSI is paid to achieve a result under your contract or agreement
you provide the tools or equipment necessary (if any) to do the work, and
you are liable for the cost of rectifying defects in the work performed.

Answer Y or N as required.

Label D - Do you hold a personal services business (PSB) determination(s) in respect of any individual?

To apply for a personal services business determination see Personal services business determination application. If your income is the PSI of more than one individual, you can apply for a determination for each of those individuals.

Answer Y or N as required.

Labels E1, E2 and E3

E1, E2 and E3 should be completed for any individual for whom you did not satisfy the results test or hold a PSB determination, and where each source of their PSI income yielded less than 80% of their total PSI.

If 80% or more of the PSI in the income year comes from one client (and their associates) you cannot self-assess whether you meet the unrelated clients test, employment test or business premises test. Under these conditions, do not complete E1, E2 and E3.
