Frequently Asked Questions
When can I access my superannuation?

Your preservation age is 60 if born after 30 June 1964. You can access super from preservation age once you retire, or at age 65 regardless of employment status. Accessing super before preservation age is severely restricted to specific compassionate grounds or financial hardship cases.

How do I consolidate multiple super accounts?

Log into myGov linked to the ATO, or contact your chosen fund directly. Check what insurance coverage you hold in each fund before closing accounts — you may lose valuable death, TPD or income protection cover. Multiple accounts mean multiple fee sets eroding your balance over time.

What is the difference between concessional and non-concessional super contributions?

Concessional contributions (salary sacrifice, employer SG, personal deductible contributions) are taxed at 15% inside your fund — beneficial for those in higher tax brackets. Non-concessional contributions are from after-tax income with no further tax in the fund. Both types are subject to annual caps.

How are super funds invested?

Most Australian super funds offer multiple investment options ranging from conservative (mostly bonds and cash) to high growth (mostly Australian and international shares). The long-term average return for balanced Australian super funds is approximately 7–8% per annum after fees but before tax on fund earnings.
