How do KiwiSaver contributions work if I have more than one employer?
Last Updated: 13 Mar 2019
If you have more than one employer when you join KiwiSaver, you can choose whether you contribute from one, or all of those jobs. If you start new employment after joining KiwiSaver, you'll have to make contributions from your salary or wages from that job (unless you're entitled to a savings suspension). If you don't wish to make contributions from that new job, you'll need to apply to Inland Revenue for a savings suspension and let your new employer know that you are on a savings suspension. A savings suspension can be applied to any or all of your jobs. Find out more about savings suspension here.
