EOFY and your super
EOFY and your super
EOFY is a great time to check in on your super. Even small contributions made before 30 June can help grow your retirement savings over time.
A few EOFY super strategies to consider
- Add extra to your super before 30 June.
- Review concessional (before-tax) and non-concessional (after-tax) contribution options.
- Check if you’re eligible for government co-contributions or spouse contribution benefits.
- Consider catch-up contributions if eligible.
Concessional contributions
Concessional contributions are made from before-tax income and may reduce your taxable income while helping grow your super. These can be made through:
- Salary sacrifice
- Personal contributions claimed as a tax deduction.
Contribution caps apply, so it’s important to check how much has already been contributed this financial year.
Non-concessional contributions
These are made using money you’ve already paid tax on, such as savings. While they don’t reduce taxable income, they can still help build your retirement balance over time.
Don’t leave it too late
Super funds may have processing cut-off dates before 30 June, so acting early is important to ensure contributions count this financial year.
Small EOFY actions today can make a meaningful difference to your future retirement savings.
