Hello,
I was wondering if someone can advise me about the correct way to claim back ATO-held superannuation. I lived and worked in Australia for around 4.5 years cumulatively:
- temporary spouse visa 2009-2012
- working holiday visa 2004-2005
I left Australia and returned to the UK permanently in 2012 - my Australian visas are no longer active. I'm uncertain who my superannuation providers were however I believe that, given the length of time that has passed, these funds should now be regarded as 'ATO-held superannuation'?
The Online Departing Australia Superannuation Payment (DASP) form fails to authenticate my Taxfile number / passport details and I'm unable to register to use the myGov, myGovID or ATO apps as I no longer have an Aussie mobile number or any accepted ID (I left 12 years ago!).
I understand that it should be possible to get a cheque posted to me in the UK for any outstanding balance minus tax however I can't see how to request this short of an international phone call.
Any advice?
Thanks!
Chris
