Need information on NZ Superannuants moving to Australia.

Can we transfer our NZ Govt Super to Australia? How long do we have to be away from NZ or in Australia? We are 67 and 72 respectively.

Hi Arbo, please see http://www.workandincome.govt.nz/manuals-and-procedures/to_or_from_overseas/reciprocal_agreements/reciprocal_australia/reciprocal_australia-34.htm on the WINZ site.

That page will tell you that you need to apply for an Australian Age Pension within 26 weeks of moving to Australia and lists other criteria. Hope that helps!

If I do not qualify for an Australian age pension after moving to Australia what happens to my Superannuation?

Can anyone assist in how to, and the most cost effective way to transfer my NZ Superfunds into an Australian Superfund?
