Do you know what your retirement looks like financially?

It's about more than your super balance.

Consider:

✔️ When you can afford to stop working
✔️ How you'll generate an income
✔️ Whether your current lifestyle is sustainable
✔️What kind of legacy you'd like to leave

The earlier you ask these questions, the more time you have to shape the answers.

⏳Tax tip: Don’t rush to lodge on 1 July.

It can be tempting to get your tax return in as soon as possible, but lodging too early may mean important income information, like wages, bank interest, dividends or private health details, hasn’t been pre-filled yet.

A little patience can help reduce errors and avoid unnecessary amendments later.

Looking to reduce this year’s tax bill? One strategy could be bringing forward deductible expenses.

If you have spare cash available, paying certain eligible expenses before June 30, may allow you to claim the deduction this financial year rather than next. Expenses paid in July could leave you waiting more than 12 months for the return.

A popular expense in this category is prepaying interest on an investment loan, but be careful because not all expenses qualify for a tax deduction in advance.
