To use your unused cap amounts you need to meet two conditions, your total super balance at the end of 30 June of the previous financial year is less than $500,000 and you made concessional contributions in the financial year that exceeded your general concessional contributions cap. The amount of unused cap amounts you will be able to carry-forward will depend on the amount you have contributed in previous years, starting from 2018â€'19. You can use caps from up to five previous financial years. It doesn't state you can't use previous years if you were a non resident or didn't have a super fund.
