Important information to consider
- Before adding to your super, consider your financial circumstances, eligibility, contribution caps that may apply, tax issues and when your super can be accessed. We recommend you consider seeking financial advice.
- Concessional contributions made to all your funds during a financial year are added together and counted towards your concessional contributions cap. The total of all non-concessional contributions made to all your funds during a financial year count towards your non-concessional contributions cap. You can track contributions that all Funds have reported via ato.gov.au.
- Before making a decision to combine your super, consider any fees or charges that may apply, and the effect a transfer may have on benefits in your other fund such as insurance cover. We recommend you consider seeking financial advice. If you wish to claim a tax deduction for personal super contributions, you must lodge a notice of intent to claim a tax deduction with your other fund before you combine your super.
