I am starting a new job and want to move to a new super fund.

I can open an account with the new super fund and provide those details to my new employer.

How long should I keep the old super fund open for (to ensure all payments captured) before rolling the funds over to the new super fund?

You should be able to access your older super fund online, @Deb.S. Different (sizes of) employers have different obligations when it comes to timeliness of payments to your fund.


So when you've seen the transactions associated with your previous employment - employer contribution plus your own pre-tax or post-tax contributions for all periodic pay periods plus your final pay, plus any contributions you've made independently - you'll be in a position to confidently roll-over total balance.
