How does a Funeral Bond Work?
Funeral bonds provide a way for individuals to plan and save for their funerals in advance, easing the financial burden on their loved ones during a challenging time.
An investor can make contributions over time in lump-sum payments or regular instalments. When the investor passes away, the money in the bond is paid out to cover funeral-related costs, such as caskets, cemetery plots, cremation, and other funeral services.
The funds can be assigned and paid directly to the funeral director, simplifying the process for the family. Unlike funeral insurance, there are no age or health restrictions applicable.
Why Choose a Funeral Bond?
Funeral bonds provide reassurance and make it easier on loved ones to say goodbye and grieve. The unique tax-treatment of Funeral Bonds means they may also provide additional financial benefits depending on the circumstances.
Provide reassurance for your client by setting aside funds to ensure their wishes are carried out. Support family members through the difficult process and build a family relationship that could last for generations.
Contributions toward a funeral bond of up to $15,000[2] are exempt from Assets and Income tests through Centrelink and the Department of Veterans’ Affairs. Additional entitlements may be up to $1,170 for individuals, or $2,340 for couples with separate policies.
Funeral bonds are tax-paid investments, so earnings are not required on annual tax returns and do not form part of assessable income.[3]
