Check out our ‘Grow your super’ page for more information on the different types of contributions you, or your employer, can make to super.
Yes. The Government sets annual caps on the amount of concessional and non-concessional contributions that can go into your super each financial year. All contributions into your super count towards the caps and there are tax consequences if you exceed them.

There are further restrictions if you have more than $1.7 million in super (across all of your super accounts). See the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) website for the latest information at ato.gov.au
If you're aged 67-74 and want to add to your super, the Government applies a ‘Work test’ which means you need to be in gainful (paid) work for at least 40 hours in a period of no more than 30 consecutive days in the financial year you make your superannuation contributions. You generally cannot contribute further money to super once you reach age 75, although the Government’s Downsizer Contribution scheme may be available to you if you sell your house. Information about contributing to super, including eligibility for the Downsizer Contribution scheme, is available at the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) website ato.gov.au .
Depending on your income levels and the amount of money going into your super, you may qualify for a tax offset or super contribution from the Government. You don't even need to apply – the Australian Taxation Office will work it out from your tax return and make any payment you're eligible for.  
 
  • Low-income superannuation tax offset
If you earn less than $37,000 in a year, you qualify for a Government refund of up to $500 on the 15% tax paid on before-tax contributions that you or your employer make to your super. The Government contributes the refund directly to your super.  
  • Spouse contribution offset
If your spouse is not working or earns less than $40,000 a year and you make after-tax contributions to their super, you will receive a tax offset of 18 cents for each $1 you contribute. The maximum offset is $540 for contributions of $3,000 if your spouse’s income is $37,000 or less. The offset reduces for spouse income above $37,000 a year and cuts out for income above $40,000. See our Spouse contribution factsheet for more information.

See our Spouse contribution factsheet for more information.
 
  • Government co-contributions
Each year, the Government's co-contribution scheme could mean up to $500 extra towards your retirement nest egg. If your total income is less than $56,112 (in the 2021/22 financial year) and you make after-tax contributions to your super, the Government will boost your super with a co-contribution of 50 cents for every $1 of those contributions up to a maximum co-contribution of $500.
Yes – as of 1 July 2017. This deduction was previously available only to the self-employed, but now everyone under age 75 (including people aged 67–74 if they're eligible – see Question 6) can claim a tax deduction on their after-tax contributions. Those contributions are then taxed at 15% and count towards the $27,500 annual concessional contributions cap.
 
TIP – if you plan on claiming a tax deduction, you’ll need to give us notice of your intention before you lodge your income tax return by completing the Notice of intent to claim a tax deduction form available from the Documents section of your online Personal Homepage.

Super funds typically offer two types of pension:
  • Transition to retirement pension (TRP) - If you’d like to cut back on work and start easing into retirement, you can use part or all of your super to buy a TRP. This will offer you lifestyle flexibility and a regular income before you retire completely.
  • Retirement pension - When you retire completely or meet what's known as a condition of release, a retirement pension will provide you with regular income.
You can start a Transition to retirement pension (TRP) when you reach your preservation age, which is See the Accessing your super page - https://www.smartmonday.com.au/Superannuation/Accessing-your-super
Investment earnings: Subject to the Government’s transfer balance cap (currently set at $1.7 million), if you have a retirement pension, investment earnings on assets in your account are tax-free.

Pension income payments: Subject to the Government’s transfer balance cap (currently set at $1.7 million), your income payments are generally tax-free once you reach age 60. You do pay tax on income payments you receive from your super before age 60, but you may be eligible for a tax offset of up to 15%.
Yes, Government sets limits on the amount of money you take as an income stream from your pension account. You must take at least 4% of your account balance as income each year (more if you're age 65 or older). If you have a Transition-to-retirement pension (TRP), you can take up to 10% of your account balance as income. There's no maximum limit on how much income you can take from a retirement pension.

Yes, smartMonday PENSION offers a range of investment options, and you can mix and match to create a customised portfolio that suits your investor personality and needs. For more information, see the Investments section in the PENSION Product Disclosure Statement.
