Superannuation consultation paper released

On 31 March Treasury released the consultation paper outlining the approach intended to be adopted when implementing the new tax for individuals with a Total Superannuation Balance (“TSB”) in excess of $3 million.

Is superannuation still super?

Jim Chalmers search for more revenue has begun in earnest with superannuation being the first cab off the rank.

Superannuation – is another change on the way?

STP Expansion – Are you ready?

The Australian Tax Office (ATO) implemented a STP system on 1 July 2018 for employers with 20 or more employees, and 1 July 2019 for employers with 19 or fewer employees as a mandatory obligation.

The new year and resolutions go hand-in-hand and yet, the maintenance of our retirement savings are often overlooked for more glamorous goals.

New legislation to change the application of salary sacrificing

The ATO recommends that employers review their salary sacrifice arrangements due to new laws that will come into effect from 1 January 2020. In the new year, employers can no longer use salary sacrificed contributions to reduce their superannuation guarantee obligations, regardless of the amount employees elect to voluntarily contribute to their super funds.

Simplifying the processes for SMSF

The Government is aiming to simplify the process for Self Managed Superannuation Funds (“SMSF”) to claim exempt current pension income (“ECPI”) through amendments proposed in the 2019/20 federal budget.
