PAYDAY SUPER: Are You Ready?

From 1 July 2026, employee super guarantee contributions must be paid within 7 business days from the payday!

Practical Insights

Start now: Easing into the changes now makes payroll and cash flow adjustments smoother.

Avoid the July cashflow crunch: Paying the June quarter super before 30 June will prevent both the June quarter and the July super from being due in July.

Get your tax deduction early: Super is deductible when paid, so paying the June quarter super in June will bring forward that tax deduction!

Avoid excess contributions: Paying the June quarter super in July may push you or your employees over the FY 2027 concessional cap, especially high-income earners under the new cap rules.

If you have any questions or are unsure how the above changes apply to you, please feel free to contact your Harris Black Team member.

Understanding The 20% HECS-HELP Debt Reduction

As part of its re-election promise, the Government committed to reducing all outstanding HECS-HELP debts by 20%. The legislation passed through the Senate today, 31st July 2025. Once it has received Royal Assent, the discount will apply retrospectively to any student loan balances as of June 1, 2025. While many Australians have noticed an increase in their student loan balances due to the annual indexation of 3.2%, the government has clarified that the 20% reduction will be calculated based on the pre-indexation amount.

💡How the Reduction Will Be Applied

Once legislated, the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) will automatically adjust eligible student loan accounts. The indexation will be recalculated based on the reduced debt amount, ensuring that borrowers benefit from both the discount and a lower indexed balance. This change is part of a broader effort to make student loan repayments more manageable, following last year’s reform that linked indexation to the lower of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) or Wage Price Index (WPI), rather than CPI alone.

💡Tax Season

For those preparing their tax returns, it’s important to note that the discount has not yet taken effect. There’s no need to delay filing your return, as the ATO will apply the discount automatically. However, borrowers who paid off their loans after June 1 may be eligible for a refund equivalent to the 20% discount (provided they don’t owe additional tax). The cut will take a few months for the Australian Tax Office to implement.

💡Other Updates

The legislation also includes reforms to the repayment system, ensuring compulsory repayments are marginal. The threshold at which students are required to start paying back their loans will be lifted from $54,435 (2024-25 minimum) to $67,000 from 1 July 2025.

Contact your Harris Black team member for any questions regarding this new legislation.
