you make a personal super contribution by 30 June each year into a complying super fund or retirement savings account

you are less than 71 years old at the end of the year of income

Your super fund needs your Tax File Number (TFN) before it can accept your personal contribution or a co-contribution from us. For more information refer to Tax file numbers and superannuation.
Remember, you are not entitled to a co-contribution for any amount of personal contributions you choose to claim as a tax deduction. For more information, refer to Claiming deductions for personal super contributions.
