Contribution splitting

Contribution splitting - super news for couples

What is it?

Now you can split personal and employer superannuation contributions with your husband or wife, or eligible partner if you are in a de facto domestic situation. Think of it as a split that's good for your future.

It can help even out the imbalance in your accounts and may also improve your tax situation.

How it works

Decide how much you want to split. The minimum is $3,000. Your contributions can be transferred to an NGS Super spouse or partner account, or to another complying superannuation fund.

The split will generally occur once a year, after the end of each financial year for contributions made in the previous financial year.

How big is the split? Refer to the conditions on page 3 of the Contributions Splitting Form below.
