Hi @ivanICE
If you claim your super as a Departing Australia Superannuation Payment (DASP) and you've never held a working holiday maker (WHM) visa, your DASP will be subject to the DASP ordinary tax rates - 35% on taxed element and 45% on untaxed element.
If you're unsure if your super has a taxed or untaxed element, you can ask your super fund.
The DASP WHM tax rate of 65% only applies to DASP where:
- someone has held a WHM visa, and
- the DASP includes amounts that relate to contributions which were made while they held the WHM visa.
Let us know if you have any further questions.
Thanks
