CONTRIBUTIONS

But these contributions alone may not be enough to help you sustain a comfortable lifestyle in retirement. You can boost your super through personal voluntary contributions and by consolidating any other super accounts you may have.

These contributions alone may not be enough to help you sustain a comfortable lifestyle in retirement. You may be able boost your super through personal voluntary contributions or by consolidating any other super accounts you may have. We suggest you contact a licensed financial advisor before making any final decisions.

We show you a breakdown of the contributions made to your account. Any contributions shown are before any tax has been deducted or allowances made for any available tax deduction (gross amounts).

If you received any Government Co-Contributions from the Australian Taxation Office these will be included in your Member After-Tax contributions.

Once we receive and validate your contributions, they are usually credited to your account within five business days.

Important note: Please be aware, any employer or before-tax contributions banked within the few days prior to 30 June may not appear in your concessional contribution totals until your account is reconciled as part of the annual review process. Amounts are subject to change.

ANNUAL CONTRIBUTION CAPS

Annual Contribution Caps apply to both accumulation and pension accounts; therefore it is important to consider your personal circumstances before making additional contributions.

You are responsible for making sure you do not exceed your annual contributions caps. Your account activity and the contribution caps page information will help you to monitor contributions made to your account against the caps. For your total year to date contributions and to find out how they’re tracking against the caps, please call us on 1300 880 588.

Important note: You should be aware that if contributions are made to super accounts you have outside of the Fund we won’t be able to provide you your total year to date contributions. We will only be able to advise you about contributions to your account with us.

CONTRIBUTION SPLITS
