WHAT HAPPENS TO MY FUTURE

fundto which your employer pays your contributions, and may
close the account you are transferring your benefits FROM.
If you wish to change the fund into which your employer
contributions are being paid, you will need to speak to your
employer about super choice. For the appropriate forms and
information about whether you are eligible to choose the fund
towhich your employer contributions are made, visit ato.gov.au
or call the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) on 13 10 20.
THINGS YOU NEED TO CONSIDER WHEN
TRANSFERRING YOUR SUPERANNUATION
When you transfer your super, your entitlements under that
fundmay cease – you need to consider all relevant information
before you make a decision to transfer your super. If you ask
forinformation, your super provider must give it to you.
Some of the points you may consider are:
n Fees – your FROM fund must give you information about any
exit or withdrawal fees. If you are not aware of the fees that
may apply, you should contact your fund for further
information before completing this form. The fees could
include administration fees, and exit or withdrawal fees.
n Death and disability benefits – your FROM fund may insure
you against death, illness or an accident which leaves you
unable to return to work. If you choose to leave your current
fund, you may lose any insurance entitlements you have –
other funds may not offer insurance, or may require you to
pass a medical examination before they cover you. When
considering a new fund, you may wish to check the costs
andamount of any cover offered.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT QUOTE MY
TAX FILE NUMBER (TFN)?
You are not required to provide your TFN to your super fund.
However, if you do not provide your TFN, your fund may be
taxed at the highest marginal tax rate, plus the Medicare levy,
oncontributions made to your account in the year, compared
tothe concessional tax rate of 15%. Your fund may deduct
thisadditional tax from your account.
If your super fund does not have your TFN, you will not be
ableto make personal contributions to your super account.
Choosing to quote your TFN will also make it easier to keep
track of your super in the future.
Under the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993,
yoursuper fund is authorised to collect your TFN, which will
onlybe used for lawful purposes. These purposes may change
in the future as a result of legislative change. The TFN may be
disclosed to another super provider when your benefits are
being transferred, unless you request in writing that your TFN
isnot to be disclosed to any other trustee.
TRANSFERRING TO YOUR SELF‑MANAGED
SUPERFUND
You must use this form to transfer your benefits to your
ownSMSF.
You should be aware that SMSFs are subject to the same rules
and restrictions as other funds regarding when benefits are to
bepaid out. In particular, super benefits in a SMSF are required
to be ‘preserved’, meaning they are not generally able to be
accessed until you are over age 55 and retired.
The trustee of your FROM fund may be able to request further
information from you about your status as a member, a trustee
or a director of a corporate trustee of your SMSF. Penalties may
apply for providing false or misleading information.
