Year-end deductible personal super contributions

As we approach the end of the financial year, you may be able to claim a tax deduction for personal super contributions that you made to your super fund from your after-tax income – for example from your bank account directly to your super fund.

Before you can claim a deduction for your personal super contributions, you must give your super fund a Notice of Intent to claim or vary a deduction for personal contributions and receive an acknowledgment from your fund.

The personal super contributions that you claim as a deduction will count towards your concessional contributions cap. When deciding whether to claim a deduction for super contributions, you should also consider the super impacts that may arise from this, including whether –

you will exceed your contribution caps

Division 293 tax applies to you

you wish to split your contributions with your spouse

it will affect your super co-contribution eligibility.

If you exceed your cap, you must pay extra tax, and any excess concessional contributions will count towards your non-concessional contributions cap.

If you would like to discuss any questions relating to your personal super contributions, please contact one of our tax specialists at 03 5571 0111.

Our New Brand is Taking Shape

June 18, 2026

If you've driven past our office recently, you may have noticed some changes underway! We're excited to share that installation of our new Brentnalls Western Victoria signage has commenced. Like many outdoor projects, the recent weather has caused a few delays, but we're looking forward to seeing the finished result once the weather improves! The rebrand represents an exciting new chapter for our firm, while maintaining the same trusted team, local knowledge and commitment to supporting our clients. We think it will be well worth the wait!
