Thank you, so once I retire in a few weeks, my current employer has asked if I can still work under the 10 hours per week which is great. I will be closing my current super fund taking all the balance to pay on the mortgage, and opening up a new one for any monies paid in super on my wages doing the under 10hrs a week, which won't be much. So how long until any monies going into the new fund have to stay there before it can be withdrawn. I probably only have a few more years left of doing the under 10 hours per week I know there won't be much in there at the time of no work at all

Can I still stay with my current employer doing under the 10 hrs a week in the same capacity, I currently only work casual for them doing approx 20 hrs a week and have done so for the last 12 months, but will go down to the under 10 hrs in a few weeks
