How to take your Super with you.
When you start a new job, your employer should provide you with the Australian Taxation Office’s (ATO) Superannuation Standard Choice form (or equivalent) within 28 days of your start date. You can use this form to advise your employer of your choice of super fund. Your employer must then make superannuation contributions into the super fund you’ve chosen.
If you don’t choose a fund, your employer will make super contributions into the fund you are stapled to. If this is your first job, your employer will make contributions into the default fund they’ve chosen for you.
This may mean an additional super account for you, with additional fees.
Staying with REI Super is easy.
Here’s how:
It’s easy to take your REI Super account with you to a new job:
- Simply complete the REI Super Standard Choice form and give this to your new employer; or
- Complete your details including your membership number on the choice form provided to you by your new employer; or
By taking us with you when you change jobs, you will keep your death and total & permanent disablement (TPD) insurance cover.
