Super Co-Contribution Update for EOFY 2026
Posted by Dejan Pekic
The deadline for EOFY super co-contributions is approaching.
Designed to help individuals save for retirement within superannuation, the scheme allows you to make either concessional or non-concessional contributions. Voluntary contributions effectively allow you to reduce your taxable income and potentially lower your marginal tax.
If you have a child at university or partner working part time, this may provide an opportunity to strategically structure wealth across the family unit. For low-income earners, the government will pay a 50% super co-contribution of up to $500. Eligible individuals generally need to be earning between $47,488 and $62,488, with a super balance less than the general transfer balance cap at the end of 30 June.
Taking a tax-effective approach to super can benefit intergenerational planning and help you and your family build sustainable wealth, and it may also play a role in your inheritance planning.
The lead-up to EOFY can be a great time to review your tax planning. Our financial planners can help you structure your income, investments and superannuation so your tax position best supports your long-term financial goals.
