Contribution options

There are several ways you can make your compulsory personal contributions (6% of your annual Salary of Office (superable salary)) to PSS.

Provided your employer agrees, your compulsory personal contributions to PSS can be made:

• entirely from your before-tax salary (concessional contributions)
• entirely from your after-tax salary (non-concessional contributions)
• from a combination of before-tax and after-tax salary.

This section also includes information about:

• contribution arrears
• concessional and non-concessional contribution limits
• contributions and benefits from age 65 to 70
• Commonwealth contributions surcharge
• Commonwealth Government co-contributions and LISC
• the Superannuation Guarantee.
