Find Your Lost Superannuation
If you
follow these simple instructions you will find the search
engine easy to use
Australia's Unclaimed
Billions
In
total, there's $7.2 billion, or an average of $1,600 per
account waiting to be claimed. It may not be a large amount
(most accounts in Australia's Unclaimed Super Fund have less
than $1,000) but if you dropped $20 down the back of the couch,
you’d look for it, so why not look for your unclaimed super?
You worked hard for this super and it's yours, go out and find
it!
If you
have worked in the last 12 years and changed jobs or your
address or even had a name change, you could be one of the more
than 3 million Australians with unclaimed superannuation.
That's one in every three working
Australians!
If you
are a "lost member", the following instructions can help
you find your lost super via the ATO Super Seeker and allow you
to transfer it into your current superannuation
fund.
