2 Budget Fairness, security and opportunity Superannuation Social security Tax Aged care Small business Other measures 2
3 Superannuation Additional super contributions for down-sizers Persons aged 65 and over who sell their home can contribute proceeds to super from 1 July 2018: Voluntary contribution rules (work test for year olds, no contributions for aged 75 and over) do not apply $1.6m total superannuation balance contribution rule does not apply Up to $300,000 non-concessional contribution, in addition to existing caps Only on sale of a principal place of residence held for minimum of 10 years Amounts contributed will be counted towards Age Pension Assets Test Both members of a couple can contribute proceeds from the same home No extension to the $1.6m transfer balance cap 3
4 Superannuation Additional super contributions for down-sizers Some things to think about: May be able to apply more than once during retirement - near start and towards end Administratively, will proceeds be checked or can any amount up to $600,000 post sale of a home be allowed? Measure may not be advantageous for those currently paying low rates of tax outside of super 4
5 Superannuation First home saver scheme Voluntary superannuation contributions to purchase first home: From 1 July 2017 up to $15,000 per year of voluntary contributions within the existing contribution caps, up to $30,000 in total From 1 July 2018 can withdraw contributions for a first home deposit along with associated deemed earnings Earnings deemed at 90 day bank bill rate + 3% (currently 4.78% p.a.) Withdrawals from concessional contributions will be taxed at marginal rate less a 30% offset Both members of a couple buying their first home are eligible to apply 5
6 Superannuation First home saver scheme Some things to think about: Can potentially save up to $60,000 for a couple buying their first home For low income earners paying low rates of tax on earnings outside super this measure may not be as effective as saving outside super What if one person in a couple is not a first home buyer? Will there be separate accounts for this measure or will amounts be invested in the member s current super accounts? What happens when actual earnings in superannuation are less than the deemed earning rate? What proof will be needed to access withdrawals? 6
7 Superannuation Limited recourse borrowing arrangements Limited recourse borrowing arrangements included in total superannuation balance and transfer balance account from 1 July 2017: Outstanding balance of LRBA included in total superannuation balance Repayments of principal and interest from an accumulation account is a credit in the transfer balance account Will apply to LRBA balances from 1 July
