How to claim personal super contribution in MyTax 2018 (MyGov)

I have made personal contribution to my super fund before 30/6/2018 and sent the super fund manager the intent claim personal contribution. This is the after tax contribution. The Fund manager has already taken 15% tax on this personal contribution.

Now I am filling the MyTax Return (MyGOV), but I could not find any relevant sections in the form to claim back the personal contribution. Can you help me?

 

If using MyTax give the ATO a call and they are generally quite helpful in assisting.

There is a section on the return for you to fill out. Will just need a few of the funds details etc.

 

When was the starting date for the deduction? Check the leglislation.

I thought it did not start until this financial year, but happy to be wrong.

At the start, you were asked a number of questions to "Personalise your return".
Under "You had deductions you want to claim" you needed to have ticked "Other deductions".
When you have done this, additional questions will appear in the deductions section, one of which relates to your personal super contribution, where you can enter it as a deduction.

If you missed the selection and are already in the part where you fill in the details, at the top there will be four circles numbered 1 to 4. Circle 3 is "Personalise your return" and you can click on it and change your answer to that question, then click "Next" at the bottom.

I hope my explanation makes sense!

 

It started last financial year.

My Wife made a significant contribution in June using this method and is claiming it now.

 

1. You need to have the fund letter that confirms they processed the contribution as a concessional contribution
2. Item D12 in the return...It now asks a question about the letter referred to in 1.

D12 may be hidden and you can navigate to it using the index OR follow the tip by G... above
