Giving us your tfn means you pay the correct tax

Under the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993, your superannuation fund is authorised to collect your TFN, which will only be used for lawful purposes. These purposes may change in the future as a result of legislative change.

The Trustee of your fund may disclose your TFN to another superannuation provider, when your benefits are being transferred, unless you request us in writing that your TFN not be disclosed to any other superannuation provider. It is not an offence not to quote your TFN. However, giving your TFN to your superannuation fund will have the following advantages (which may not otherwise apply):

•the tax applicable to employer (concessional) contributions (including salary sacrifice contributions) made to your superannuation account will not increase (see further information below)

•we will be able to accept non-concessional (after-tax) contributions on your behalf

•other than the tax that may ordinarily apply, no additional tax will be deducted when you start drawing down your superannuation benefits

contributions will be taxed at 46.5%. The additional tax is

determined at the end of a financial year. A member has

until the end of a financial year to supply their TFN, if it has not been supplied then the additional tax is payable.

Following changes to the Superannuation Act 1916, the State Authorities Superannuation Act 1987 and the Police Regulation (Superannuation) Act 1906, the Trustee

requires member benefits to be reduced by the No TFN contributions tax amount to enable the fund to recover the additional tax paid. If additional tax has been paid, a No TFN contributions tax debt account balance will be established

and will be shown on your annual statements.

If a member supplies their TFN within 3 years of the tax

becoming payable, then the fund is able to recover the tax back from the ATO. Therefore if you have a No TFN contributions tax debt account, you may be able to have

some of the amount reduced if you subsequently provide

your TFN. The fund is unable to recover any No TFN contributions tax that was payable outside the 3 year timeframe from the ATO.

Under Commonwealth legislation, where accounts

were opened prior to 1 July 2007, the fund is liable to pay additional income tax on assessable contributions that reach or exceed $1,000 in any financial year (i.e.

concessional contributions such as employer and salary

sacrifice contributions). The extra tax is payable on all

assessable contributions made in that income year, including the first $1,000.

The tax on concessional contributions is generally payable

at the rate of 15%. However, if a fund does not hold the TFN of a member, then an additional tax of 31.5% is

payable on those contributions, meaning that in total those
