Make extra contributions by Monday 26 June

If you’re making voluntary contributions to your Hostplus account, make sure they’re made by Monday 26 June. This will ensure we receive them by the end of the financial year. 

You can make a contribution via BPAY. Log in to Member Online or the Hostplus app to get your BPAY details. You’ll find them under ‘Voluntary Contributions’ in the member section of the main menu.  

On the app, find the ‘Make a contribution’ option from the menu icon in the top left of the app.

Government co-contributions

You could receive extra money from the government just by contributing extra to your super. If you’re eligible, the government could contribute 50c for every dollar you contribute to super – up to a maximum of $500.   

Spouse contribution tax offset

You may be able to claim a tax offset of up to $540 on contributions you made to your partner’s super. If you’re eligible, include these contributions on your tax return. 

Set up salary sacrifice

You can ask your employer to pay more into your super from your salary. It’s an easy way to grow your super and pay less tax. 

Claim a tax deduction for voluntary after-tax contributions

You can also claim a tax deduction for your personal super contributions. To do so, you must complete a notice of intent form to let us know. 

Please note, to claim a tax deduction for contributions made in 2022-23, you must return this form before

  • the day you lodge your income tax return for 2022-23 OR 
  • the end of the 2023/24 financial year 

whichever comes first.  

Once we’ve confirmed that your claim has been accepted, you can then complete your tax return. 

You can also use this form to change an earlier notice.   

Email your completed form to: 
info@hostplus.com.au  

or send it to:

Please note that eligibility rules apply – visit the ATO website for details. Check the ‘Contribution caps’ section below to see how much you’re able to claim. 

Annual contribution caps apply to the super contributions made to your super fund(s) each financial year. If you contribute more than the cap, you may have to pay extra tax.  

Your cap depends on your account balance and the type of contribution. 

Contribution type Cap

Concessional 

Contributions that are made into your super account before tax. These include: 

  • Super Guarantee (SG) contributions from your employer 
  • salary sacrifice 
  • contributions for which you claim a tax deduction 
  • SG vouchers from the ATO (for previously unpaid employer SG contributions) 

Important: If you have more than one super account, concessional contributions made to ALL your accounts during a financial year are added together and counted towards your concessional contributions cap. 

$27,500 

You may be able to contribute more if you didn’t use your full amount in earlier years and your total super balance is less than $500,000 on 30 June of the 2022-23 financial year. 

Non-concessional 

Contributions from your after-tax income. These contributions are not taxed in your Hostplus super account. They include: 

  • personal after-tax contributions 
  • spouse contributions. 

Important: If you have more than one super account, non-concessional contributions made to ALL of your accounts are added together and counted towards the non-concessional contributions cap. 

$110,000 

Your cap might be different. It can be: 

  • higher, if you can use the bring-forward arrangements (see below) 
  • nil, if your total super balance is greater than or equal to the general transfer balance cap ($1.7 million). 

Bring-forward rule for non-concessional contributions

If you're under 75 and have less than $1.7 million in super, you may be able to bring forward up to three years of non-concessional (after-tax) contributions. This means you can contribute up to $330,000 over three years, rather than $110,000 each year. 

For example, if you make $150,000 in non-concessional contributions in the 2022-23 financial year, you’ll go over the $110,000 cap by $40,000. The bring-forward rule allows you to make this contribution and contribute another $180,000 over the following two years without breaching the cap. 

Visit the ATO website for more information about contribution limits and the bring forward rule.
