Personal superannuation contribution deductions are on the rise and so are the risks of getting them wrong.

With more individuals taking advantage of carry-forward concessional contribution caps, the opportunity is huge, but so is the potential for compliance missteps. A simple error could result in a denied deduction, unintended use of non-concessional contribution caps, and unexpected personal tax liabilities. 

In this session, superannuation expert Matthew Richardson will guide you through the critical rules and common mistakes around claiming deductions for personal superannuation contributions before they cost your clients dearly. 

You will learn: 

  • When a deduction can legitimately be claimed 
  • Contribution rules and timing traps to watch for 
  • How to lodge a valid Notice of Intent, and what changes if you need to amend it 
  • The income tax consequences of incorrect or late notices 
  • The ATO’s current focus areas and how to stay off their radar 

This webinar is a must for accountants and advisers working with clients who make personal superannuation contributions.

  • 1.25 hour on-demand event
  • 1.25 accredited CPD hours from the SMSF Association/Financial Advice Association of Australia
