Superannuation is a long-term investment. The Government has placed restrictions on when you can access your preserved benefits. The Government has set caps on the amount of money you can add to superannuation each year on a concessionally taxed basis. In addition, the Government has set a non-concessional contributions cap. For more detail, speak with a financial adviser or visit the ATO website. There may be a fee charged by your superannuation fund for accepting rollovers. Before requesting the rollover, you should also check with your other fund(s) to see if there are any exit fees for moving your benefit, or other loss of benefits (e. g. insurance cover). There may be limited circumstances where your employer is not required to accept your Choice of Superannuation fund form e. g. if you have already exercised Super Choice in the last 12 months.
