Why should you provide your TFN?

Providing your TFN to CareSuper is not compulsory and not supplying it is not an offence. However after 1 July 2007, if you don’t tell us your TFN:

  • Your contributions to CareSuper via your employer will be taxed at 46.5% instead of the usual 15%
  • CareSuper will not be able to accept personal voluntary contributions from you
  • You may pay more tax than you have to when you claim your superannuation benefits
  • It may be more difficult for CareSuper to locate or amalgamate all your superannuation benefits
  • Superannuation Surcharge may apply to your benefit*

'46.5%' - The current top marginal rate plus Medicare levy.

'more tax' - Additional tax may later be reclaimed through your personal income tax assessment.

*Although Superannuation Surcharge assessment ceased on 1 July 2005, obligations are still payable in respect of any assessments for the financial years 1 July 2000 to 30 June 2005
