Bring-forward rule¶

Definition. The bring-forward rule can let you use up to a few years' worth of the non-concessional (after-tax) contributions cap in a single year, depending on your age and your total super balance.

In plain English¶

Normally there is a yearly limit on how much after-tax money you can put into super. The bring-forward rule lets some people use future years' limits early, so they can make a larger contribution in one go. Whether you can do this, and how many years you can bring forward, depends on your age and how much super you already have. The ATO sets the amounts involved.
