The ATO is reminding taxpayers they may have superannuation held on their behalf, including unclaimed super from inactive accounts, employer contributions that couldn't be paid to a fund, and certain government contributions.

It only takes a few minutes to check through myGov, ATO online services, or the ATO app, and any funds found can be consolidated into your active account.

The Administrative Review Tribunal recently found that an oral health therapist engaged by a dental clinic was an employee for super guarantee purposes, despite being treated as a contractor.

Key factors in the decision included how integrated she was into the practice's team, her inability to delegate the work, and the fact she couldn't practise independently of the clinic.

Getting worker classification wrong can leave a business liable for unpaid super guarantee charges, even with a contractor agreement in place.

Businesses can no longer claim a deduction for general interest charge (GIC) or shortfall interest charge (SIC) incurred from the 2025-26 income year onward.

In practice, this makes staying on top of payment deadlines and lodgement accuracy more valuable than ever, these charges now land at full cost with nothing to offset them.

Since 1 July 2026, employers have been required to pay super to an employee's nominated fund on every payday, rather than just quarterly. Payments need to reach the fund within 7 business days of payday (longer timeframes can apply for new employees), and qualifying earnings and super liability now need to be reported through Single Touch Payroll.

If super isn't received in full and on time, the super guarantee charge applies. A month into this change, now is a good time to check your payroll cycle is keeping pace, particularly if you're still adjusting processes from quarterly to payday reporting.
