Find your lost super

There are billions of dollars in lost super in Australia, and some of it could be yours. The good news is that it’s pretty easy to find.

A super account is considered lost if your super fund can’t contact you or your account has been inactive for some time. This can happen if you move, change jobs, or change your name.

But finding your lost super is not hard, and it’s easy to consolidate it with your other super.

Finding your lost super

Find your super

Create a myGov account and link to the ATO to see details of your super accounts, including any you have lost track of.

You will need your:

• name
• date of birth
• tax file number (TFN)

 

Check the fees

Entry and exit fees cannot be charged. Before you transfer your lost super, you should check the implications on fees and tax, and any benefits (eg insurance) you may have.

Bring it all together 

Consolidating all of your super into one account is easy and means you will only need to pay one set of fees and keep track of one account.
