When uploading the wages into STP2 for submission to the ATO

The Employee Super salary Sacrifice amount is now included in the Gross amount

Is this correct?

Eg Employee earns $1000.00 and wants to SS into Super $200

previously the Gross amount would show as $800 ( the reduced amount subject to Tax)

Now it is showing as $1000 (doesn't this effect the tax at the end of year)

the Salary sacrifice amount is showing as a Type S positive $200


Is this correct,

    Hi @Starjanet

    Yes this is correct under STP Phase 2 reporting. When reporting Salary Sacrifice, instead of reducing the Gross payments balance, it is linked to the new Salary Sacrifice (Type Code S) tax tracking type. This means the full gross amount is reported with the Salary Sacrifice separated out and as a positive balance.

    There's also some info on this from the ATO on their site HERE.

    No it doesn't have that functionality at this stage.
