Te whakauru aunoa i ngā kaimahi ki roto i te KiwiSaver Automatically enrol employees into KiwiSaver

If your employee is already in KiwiSaver there's no need to auto-enrol them.

Ask them to fill in a KiwiSaver deduction - KS2 form.

The form tells you:

• the rate to deduct KiwiSaver contributions from their pay
• if they're on a savings suspension (you'll need to see the notice before you stop their deductions).

Keep the KS2 for your records.

Check employee eligibility for KiwiSaver

Some employees do not have to auto-enrol into KiwiSaver through you. If they’re eligible, and they want to join, they choose to opt in.

Opt an employee into KiwiSaver

Give the employee you're auto-enrolling their KiwiSaver pack within 7 days of their start date.

If the employee is joining:

• your employer-chosen scheme, you give them their product disclosure statement
• a default scheme, they'll get their product disclosure statement from us.

Fill in a New employee and KiwiSaver details – IR346K for each employee you're automatically enrolling. 

You can complete it in myIR or post it to the address on the form either:

• before their first pay day
• with the Employment information - IR348 form that includes their first pay.

Keep a copy for your records.

If your employee’s on an approved savings suspension, ask to see their notice.

If they’re on an approved savings suspension, do not:

• deduct KiwiSaver from their pay
• pay employer contributions.
