What if I open a FHSA, but find the perfect home in two years and want to use money in the FHSA for a deposit?
This is a really important question. You won’t be able to withdraw your money from the FHSA because four financial years have not elapsed. If you buy the property using money from other sources and you live in that property, your FHSA will be closed and its balance will be transferred to your super fund.
Can I salary sacrifice into a FHSA? No, all contributions must be from after-tax income.
