Frequently asked questions
What's the current mandatory super contribution rate?
Australia's Superannuation Guarantee rate has been rising in recent years — check the current rate to get an accurate contribution figure.
Does this include voluntary contributions?
Add any voluntary/salary-sacrifice contributions into your monthly contribution figure for a more complete projection.
When can I access my super?
Generally at your "preservation age" (currently around 60, depending on birth year) and once you've met a condition of release such as retirement.
Is salary-sacrificing into super tax-effective?
Often yes — super contributions are typically taxed at a flat concessional rate, which can be lower than your marginal income tax rate, though caps apply.
