'ang on, they can't file your return without your auth, can they?

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I am guessing the tax return was filed before the notice of intent to claim the super was done. You can't claim Super as a deduction on your tax return until the Super fund has taken out the 15% tax and processed it as a concessional contribution.

No, I filed the tax return well after the NOICC was done and I received an acknowledgement. But the super fund has still not submitted the data to the ATO despite repeatedly saying they did on the phone when I noticed the discrepancy

I filed the return myself, followed all the instructions to a tee, turns out my super fund is not being very truthful or clear about how quickly they then send that info to the ATO.

ahhh. Rookie mistake. Trust no one until you see the paperwork for yourself.

It appears to be very rare for the contributions to not show up with the ATO, according to both the ATO, the super fund and two accountants I spoke to, and there is no paperwork to "see" really (everything was good on paper) but thanks for the condescension anyway I guess

apologies, wasn't meaning to be condescending. Was meant to be more commiserating with a "Never trust the bastards, they will get you any way they can" sorta vibe
