Preparing for tax year end

Useful EOFY information for your SuperSMA, Private Wealth and managed accounts

Praemium EOFY Information

In the lead up to June 30, we have outlined the important information you need to know about super changes for FY25 and the processing cut off times for Praemium Super, SMA and Private Wealth accounts.

For advisers please refer to the Help Centre for further information on End of Financial Year Reporting.

Super legislation changes for the new financial year

From 1 July 2024, the following changes will take effect;

Contribution caps increasing

The concessional contribution cap is increasing to $30,000, up from $27,500
The non-concessional contribution cap is increasing to $120,000 up from $110,000, and therefore, the 3 year bring forward cap is increasing to $360,000

SG contribution rate is increasing to 11.5%

This is the amount of super guarantee contributions that employers must make for eligible employees, in addition to their base salary, increasing from 11% to 11.5%.

Preservation age going to 60 years old

From 1 July, the age you need to reach to withdraw your super has increased to 60 for everyone.
This means the low-rate cap rule allowing people between preservation age to 60 years old to withdraw up to $235,000 tax free, is no longer available.
TTR pensions will only be available to members over 60 years old, and therefore there will be no PAYG on pension payments from a TTR.

Don’t forget, Notice of intent to claim or vary a tax deduction (NOI s.290-170) can be easily lodged online by your adviser. This is a straight through process removing the need for the manual ATO form.
