Factsheets

Ordinary time earnings
From 1 July 2008, all Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions must be calculated using ordinary time earnings (OTE) as the earnings base.

Government co-contribution scheme
If you are eligible and make personal contributions to your superannuation fund, the Government will match your contribution with a co-contribution up to certain limits.

Accepting an employee's choice
Eligible employees must be given a choice of super fund, but there are circumstances where employers can reject their choice.

Where is your super?
It is easy to find out where all your old super amounts are currently and consolidate them.

Nominating Your Beneficiaries
If you die before you retire, the Trustee of your super fund has to make sure that your super gets paid to your dependents - the people who might be depending on you financially.

UK Pension transfers
Professional Associations Superannuation Fund, of which AESuper is a division, is now a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS). This means no extra UK tax will apply if you transfer your UK pension(s) into your AESuper account, provided certain conditions are met.
