Business Owners & Self Employed: $521 Free From The Government
đź’ˇAre You Eligible for $521.43 KiwiSaver Government Contribution?
âś” Each year, the Government contributes up to $521.43 towards your retirement savings automatically through your KiwiSaver provider.
đź’˛To receive the full $521.43, you need to contribute at least $1,042.86 of your own money between 1 July 2023 and 30 June 2024. Note: Employer contributions, past government contributions, and funds moved from Australian retirement schemes do not count towards this amount.
đź’˛You can make a voluntary additional contribution to reach $1,042.86 by 30 June (remember to allow for processing time).
✔Even if you don’t save the full amount, you still receive 50 cents for every dollar you contribute between 1 July 2023 and 30 June 2024.
You won’t get the full contribution if:
❌ You turn 18 part-way through the year
❌ You join part-way through the year
❌ You no longer meet the eligibility criteria
✔If you join, turn 18, or reach the age of eligibility to stop contributing part-way through the year, the government contribution is prorated based on your membership days.
Your KiwiSaver provider applies for the contribution after 30 June.
