Hi! I am applying for my superannuation after departing Australia. My superannuation has been transfered to unclaimed super. The first 6 months I was on a Working Holiday Visa. The super from that time was collected in one account. After six months I had a temporary visa and the superannuation was collected in a new account. Since I didn't apply to get my super back until now it has all been transfered to unclaimed tax. If I apply for it, will everything ( 4 years of work) be taxed at 65 %? Can I apply for part of it so that not everything is taxed by the rate 65 %. What is my options? I was planing to put the money in my superannuation fund at home since it is 4 years of my working life .


Best regards

Sofia

Hi @Sofia888,


It depends on your visa types as to how you'll be taxed. When you hold a WHM visa and another visa it depends on whether you're claiming the super you earnt whilst on a WHM visa. If you're then the whole lot will be taxed at 65%.


We've a great article that you may like to read about claiming departing Australia super payments. It has all the info you'll need.

Hi Anita,

In regards to you response, is it possible to claim DASP on just the portion of super you earned on a resident visa if funds held to a WHM and 457 are in the same account?

I have just $1k super earned on WHM and 9 years totalling $120k on a 457 will the entire amount be taxed at 65% ?
