Tax and your pension

In July each year, we’ll send you a copy of your payment summary, which you’ll need for your annual tax return. We also report this information directly to the ATO, so it will be available to pre-fill when completing your tax return.

You can choose to change the amount of tax deducted from your pension at any time. If you’d like to update your tax-free threshold, you’ll need to complete a Tax File Number declaration form, which you can find on the ATO website. You can also nominate an additional whole dollar amount by writing to us.

NOTE: We have to apply tax according to the ATO fortnightly tax tables and offset provisions—unless these indicate you don’t have to pay tax, we can’t reduce your tax to zero.
