Our Melbourne-based team ensures your fund operates effectively while staying compliant with Australian regulations.
What should I do if my employer isn’t paying my superannuation?
If your employer hasn’t been making superannuation contributions, you can report the issue to the Australian Taxation Office (ATO). They will investigate and take action to recover unpaid amounts. Seeking legal advice can also help you understand your rights and take further steps if necessary.
Can I access my superannuation early?
Accessing superannuation early is only allowed in specific circumstances, such as severe financial hardship, permanent disability, or terminal illness. The Australian Taxation Office manages early release requests, and a lawyer can assist you in navigating this complex process.
What happens to my superannuation if I move overseas?
If you move overseas permanently, your superannuation will remain in your fund until you retire or meet a condition of release. However, temporary residents may be able to claim their superannuation through the Departing Australia Superannuation Payment (DASP) scheme.
How do I set up a self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF)?
Setting up an SMSF involves registering the fund, creating a trust deed, and appointing trustees. It also requires compliance with strict regulations overseen by the Australian Taxation Office. Legal advice can ensure your SMSF is structured correctly and meets all obligations.
What are my options if I disagree with a superannuation trustee’s decision?
If you believe a trustee has made an unfair decision regarding your superannuation, you can dispute it through the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) or by taking legal action. Consulting a superannuation lawyer ensures your claim is presented effectively and within the correct legal framework.
Can my superannuation be split during a divorce?
Yes, superannuation is considered property and can be divided during a divorce or separation. This process requires a formal agreement or court order, and legal advice is essential to ensure a fair and equitable outcome.
What are the tax implications of withdrawing superannuation?
Superannuation withdrawals may be taxed depending on your age, the type of withdrawal, and your fund’s rules. For example, accessing your superannuation before retirement may incur significant tax penalties. Seeking legal or financial advice can help you minimise tax obligations.
How can I consolidate multiple superannuation accounts?
If you have multiple superannuation accounts, you can consolidate them into one fund to save on fees and simplify management. The ATO provides an online service to locate and merge your accounts, and a lawyer can help ensure the process is smooth and legally compliant.
