💼 Payday Super & Independent Contractors

If you’ve had to pay super for an independent contractor before, Payday Super doesn’t change who is eligible — it changes when super must be paid. ⏰

Generally, super may be required where a contractor is engaged mainly for their labour, personal effort, skills or time — even if they have an ABN, invoice you, or are called a contractor in the agreement. 🧾

From Payday Super, eligible super contributions must be:
📅 Paid each payday
⏱️ Reach their super fund within 7 business days

🔍 If your business engages independent contractors, now is a good time to review your arrangements and make sure you’re ready.

📢 Tax Time 2026 reminder for contractors!

Make sure you check your ATO pre-fill information against your own records and declare all business income — including payments from platforms, private clients and cash work. 💰

The ATO says around $21 billion in TPAR payments will be pre-filled for eligible taxpayers, making tax time easier and helping reduce errors. ✅

However, pre-fill may not include all your business income, so keep your records handy. 📝

📅 Tip: The ATO recommends waiting until after 28 August to lodge, when more TPAR information is expected to be available.

Don’t let missing income become a costly mistake. Get your records in order and lodge with confidence! 👍
