Hey , Some good news here is that you can claim a Departing Australia Superannuation Payment (https://community.ato.gov.au/s/article/a079s0000009GmtAAE/claiming-your-departing-australia-superannuation-payment-dasp-online) (DASP) if you've been on a temporary work visa and you meet all of the other criteria (https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/entering-and-leaving-australia/leaving-australia). Doing this shouldn't affect new visa applications if you're returning to Australia later on, but you should ask your super fund if there are any conditions on opening a new account for your next working holiday visa. Claiming a DASP also won't impact your ability to stay here permanently down the track.
