📣 PAYDAY SUPER & INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS

The ATO is reminding businesses that Payday Super changes when super contributions must be paid — not who is entitled to receive them.

Businesses generally need to pay super where they engage an independent contractor mainly for their labour, personal effort, skills or time.

This can apply even if the contractor:
🔹 Has an ABN
🔹 Invoices the business for their work
🔹 Is described as a contractor in a written agreement

Where an independent contractor is entitled to super, the contribution must be paid for each payday and reach their super fund within 7 business days after payday.

💡 What about Single Touch Payroll (STP)?
It is not mandatory to report payments made to independent contractors through STP.
However, if a business chooses to report these payments voluntarily, it must meet the STP reporting requirements, including reporting qualifying earnings and super liability information.

Could you have lost super?💰

The ATO is urging individuals to check whether they have lost or unclaimed super, with more than $21 billion waiting to be reunited with its owners.

Super can become lost when an account is inactive and your fund can no longer contact you - often after a change of job, address or phone number.

In some cases, lost super may be transferred to the ATO, where it is held until it can be reunited with you.

The ATO reports that last year, more than $1.1 billion was returned through consolidations and direct payments to eligible individuals.

🔎 When was the last time you checked your super?

You can check for lost or unclaimed super through ATO online services. Alternatively, contact our team and we can assist you.

📣 PAYDAY SUPER – TIPS TO HELP YOU STAY ON TRACK

Under Payday Super, super contributions must be received by an employee’s super fund within 7 business days after payday.

To help meet the new timeframe, the ATO recommends that employers:

✅ Verify super fund details
Use the new Member Verification Request (MVR) to check that an employee’s super fund details are valid and that the fund can accept contributions before making a payment.

✅ Check your payroll provider or clearing house
Make sure the fund is responding to MVRs so you can verify details before paying.

✅ Monitor your payments
Super funds have 3 business days to allocate or reject a payment, so keep an eye on payments to make sure they have been successfully processed.

✅ Act quickly if a payment is rejected
If a contribution is rejected or returned, correct any errors and resubmit the payment to the correct fund as soon as possible.

👋 New employees or employees changing funds
Employers generally have 20 business days to make the initial contribution.

💡The ATO has stated that employers who genuinely try to comply with Payday Super will not be the focus of compliance action during the first year.

Deductions for Rental Properties That Double as Holiday Homes 🏡

The ATO has updated its guidance on rental property income and expenses from 1 July 2026, including properties that are also used as holiday homes.

If you own a holiday home that you rent out, it must be used (or genuinely held for use) mainly to produce rental income before you can claim expenses relating to its ownership and use.

If this requirement isn’t met, expenses that may be entirely non-deductible include:

🔹 Interest expenses
🔹 Council and water rates
🔹 Body corporate fees
🔹 Repairs and maintenance

If the property is mainly used to produce rental income but has some minor private use - such as a week or a few weekends in the off-season when there are no bookings — expenses must still be apportioned accurately to reflect the periods of private use.

💡 Thinking about buying a holiday home or renting out your existing property? Make sure you understand the tax implications and keep accurate records of both rental and private use.
