Foreign Income When should an employer use a Foreign Employment Payment Summary? A Foreign Employment Payment Summary must be issued if an employee worked overseas and: Explanations: there was foreign tax paid on the income to a foreign government on behalf of the employee; or the employee worked for 60 or more calendar days consecutively, or the income they earned was clearly foreign sourced. 60 consecutive days The count will begin from the day work commenced, not including travel time If the employee returns to their Australian home at any time, the count will end. Income that is clearly foreign sourced Income is clearly foreign sourced if the employee has taken up an engagement under the direction of a foreign employer, although continuing to be paid by their Australian payer. An example of this would be if an employee was sent to work for an overseas entity related to their Australian employer to carry out work separate to their normal Australian role. Leave accruals Leave entitlements which accrued or accrue while the income earned was exempt will continue to be exempt. Leave entitlements that accrue when an employee has met one of the three conditions for issuing a Foreign Employment Payment Summary would be regarded as foreign employment income. Foreign Income spreadsheet ADP will email you a copy of the Foreign Income Spreadsheet by Friday 6 May 2016. To assist ADP in producing Foreign Income Payment Summaries, please provide details of any employees who require a Foreign Income Payment Summary on the provided spreadsheet. Please complete and return this information to ADP via ADP SecureMail by Friday 3 June 2016. Example of Foreign Income Spreadsheet 12

Overpayments Occasionally an employee will be overpaid during the course of a financial year. Depending on when an overpayment occurs and when it is discovered will determine how it is reported. How is an overpayment reported when it has occurred in the current financial year? Where an overpayment is identified in the same financial year as it is paid, the employee will only need to repay the net amount of the overpaid amount. The net amount is the amount actually received by the employee. Where an overpayment is identified within the same financial year, details of the overpayment should not be included in the employee s payment summary. The employee should repay the net overpaid amount from their after-tax income. The overpaid amount may be repaid in the same financial year or a subsequent financial year. How is an overpayment reported when it has occurred in a previous financial year? Where an overpayment occurs in one financial year and the overpaid amount/s is discovered in a later financial year, the tax withheld from the employee cannot be recovered from the ATO. If the employee is required to pay back the overpayment, they will need to repay back the gross amount. The gross amount will be the overpaid amount actually received by the employee plus any tax amount withheld. The employee will need to repay the gross amount back from their after-tax income. Once an overpayment has been discovered that relates to a previous financial year, an amended payment summary is to be provided to the employee. It should detail the amounts that the employee should have received in the relevant income year however the tax withheld is not to be adjusted on the payment summary. If the overpayment occurred in more than one year, an amended payment summary should then be provided to the employee for each relevant financial year. Please note that overpayments that are not recovered in the same financial year may also be liable for Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) as a loan fringe benefit. Adjusting employee s pays when an overpayment has occurred in the current financial year ADP will email you a copy of the Overpayment spreadsheet by Friday 6 May 2016. Employees who have been overpaid during the current financial year and who are required to pay back the overpayment will need to have their year to date figures adjusted in the payroll system so that correct figures are reported on payment summaries. Please enter all relevant employee details on the provided Overpayments spreadsheet and return this information to ADP via ADP SecureMail by Friday 3 June 2016. Example of Overpayments Spreadsheet Important Notes: Only overpayments which have occurred in the current financial year are to be entered and adjusted in the system in preparation for Payment Summary production. For further information about Overpayments, please refer to www.ato.gov.au and search PAYG withholding - repayment of overpaid amounts (NAT 5173) 14

Grossed up Reportable Fringe Benefit Amount All clients are required to identify any employees who have received Reportable Fringe Benefit amounts during the current financial FBT year (01/04/15 31/03/16) and report the grossed up amounts on the FBT spreadsheet for those employees. If the grossed up Reportable Fringe Benefit Amount provided is less than $3,921.00 per employee, the system will NOT include this on the Payment Summary as it is under the FBT reportable threshold. will however allow this amount to be loaded and appear in the employee s YTD FBT History Screen. ADP will email you a copy of the FBT spreadsheet by Friday 6 May 2016. If you have any employees who have received a Reportable Fringe Benefit Amount in the current financial FBT year, please complete the FBT Spreadsheet and return this information to ADP via ADP SecureMail by Friday 3 June 2016. Important Note: Please provide your FBT grossed up amounts on the provided spreadsheet to ensure correct amounts are uploaded. RFBA Spreadsheet 15

Superannuation Holding Accounts Where an employee has commenced employment with an employer however has not decided on a superannuation fund of choice, the employer may pay the employee s superannuation guarantee into a Superannuation Holding Account. These accounts do not relate to an actual super fund. Amounts appearing are a calculation only, which means no payment is being made to any specific fund. If you have any current employees set up on a Superannuation Holding Account, you will be provided with the following report that will list these employees by Friday 6 May 2016: Allowance report (if applicable) Please review the report provided to you and advise your MS Payroll Administrator of the relevant superannuation allowance code, USI and member number for each applicable employee by Friday 27 May 2016 via ADP SecureMail. ADP will set the employee up on the super code, USI and membership number as advised by you and will complete a reversal of the YTD amount of superannuation calculated against the super holding code unless otherwise advised by you. Any superannuation held in a holding account can be reversed and included in a pay process prior to end of financial year to ensure it is paid by the 28 July 2016 legislated cut-off date. If employees have not provided their superannuation fund details to you, ADP strongly recommends you pay employee s superannuation to your company default fund. Important Note: Whilst ADP have provided you reports advising of employees who are set up on a superannuation holding account, please advise ADP of any other employees that may be set up on any other form of superannuation holding e.g. Salary Sacrifice so that these employees can also be amended prior to the end of the current financial year. You will only be provided with the above report if you have employees currently set up on a super holding code. 16

Superannuation Changes In the 2014-15 Federal Budget, the Treasurer announced the government s intention to change the schedule for increasing the super guarantee (SG) rate to 12%. The SG rate increased from 9.25% to 9.5% effective from 1 July 2014. The Government amendments to the legislation mean that the rate will remain at 9.5% until 30 June 2021 and then increase by 0.5% each year until it reaches 12%. As such, there is no need to review your superannuation rates to make amendments. Other Superannuation Changes Concessional Superannuation Cap (for employer contributions and salary sacrifice amounts) The Concessional Superannuation Cap will remain at $30,000 for most employees from 1 July 2016. Therefore the first $30,000 of before tax contributions will be taxed at a concessional rate of 15%. Payments in excess of the concessional cap will be taxed at the individual s marginal tax rate, which may or may not be the highest marginal tax rate. Non-Concessional Superannuation Cap (for personal after tax superannuation contributions) The Non-Concessional Cap will remain at $180,000 from 1 July 2016. Maximum Contribution Base The Maximum Contribution Base will increase from $50,810 per quarter to $51,620 per quarter from 1 July 2016.

Other Legislation Changes Tax-free part of genuine redundancy (Lump Sum D) The tax-free part of genuine redundancies will increase to $9,936 plus $4,969 for each completed year of service from 1 July 2016. (The current financial year figures are $9,780 plus $4,891). ETP Thresholds The ETP cap will remain at $195,000 from for the financial year commencing 1 July 2016. Whole of Income cap will remain at $180,000 as this is a non-indexed figure. 18

Data Cleanse Report ADP will email you a copy of the data cleanse report by Friday 6 May 2016. The data cleanse report will highlight to you any employees that: do not have a residential address listed on their master file. Whilst an employee can have a printed payment summary delivered to a Post Office Box address, the ATO requires employees to report a residential address. As such, any employee that has a Post Office Box listed as their residential address will be highlighted on the data cleanse report for you. Please provide a residential address for each employee on the report who currently has a Post Office Box address listed as their residential address. have a default Tax File Number. Please review any employee that has a default Tax File Number and where available, provide the employee s valid Tax File Number. Important Notes: Default Tax File Number The address populated in the Postal Address field of an employee s master file, will be the address used if an employee has a printed payment summary produced. Occasionally an employee s Postal Address field has other data populated in this field such as As above or N/A. Where it is identified that an employee has anything other than a Post Office Box address populated in the Postal Address field of their master file, this will be automatically removed so that only valid Post Office Box addresses are printed. Payment summaries cannot be reissued for an incorrectly provided Tax File Number. If you do not receive a Data Cleanse report, it is an indication that all of your employees have a valid Tax File Number and residential address on their master file. Please review the Data Cleanse Report containing employee addresses and Tax File Numbers and advise ADP via ADP SecureMail of any changes required to this data by Friday 10 June 2016. ADP will make these changes to ensure that all employees have valid details prior to the production of their payment summaries this year. 19

Withholding Tax Variation If employees have a Withholding Tax Variation recorded for the current financial year, unless otherwise advised, the code will be removed from each employee s master file once your final payroll for the current financial year has been run. If you have any current employees with a Withholding Tax Variation, ADP will provide you with a copy of a report listing those employees by Friday 6 May 2016.
