The super guarantee payment for the last the quarter is due 28 January 2016, for all businesses with employees, and SMEs can get help from the ATO website
If you have workers, don’t forget that their super guarantee payment for the last the quarter is due 28 January 2016. If you have not already, you need to pay a minimum of 9.5% of each eligible employee’s ordinary time earnings in super to a complying fund by the due date.
Unlike other payment types you may make in business, super contributions are only counted as paid when the super fund receives them. That’s why it’s best to make any payments well before 28 January to ensure they reach the super fund on time.
If you’re a business with less than 20 employees, or have an aggregated turnover of less than $2 million, you can use the Small Business Superannuation Clearing House to save time and avoid the super guarantee charge.
It’s fast and easy to use because you pay all of your super contributions in one transaction and the clearing house will distribute your payment to the various super funds on your behalf.
Start saving time by using the clearing house this quarter.
