You can stay with Telstra Super
When changing employers, there are a number of things to consider: location, salary, career path and maybe how the change will impact family. But what about your super? A change of employer does not mean you have to change who looks after your super. Regardless of your employer, you are welcome as a member of Telstra Super and there are real advantages in Telstra Super membership.
What do I need to do to stay with Telstra Super?
Nothing! Whether you’re working for the Telstra Group or for another employer you can keep your super with us. If you’re leaving the Telstra Group, your super will be automatically transferred into Telstra Super Personal Plus.
If you are already a member of Telstra Super Personal Plus, make sure you instruct your new employer to contribute to Telstra Super.
Getting your new employer to contribute
Choice of fund legislation allows you to choose the fund your Superannuation Guarantee contributions are paid into.
To arrange for your employer to contribute into your Telstra Super account:
1. request an Employer Contribution Kit for all the necessary forms and information for your employer to contribute to Telstra Super.
2. complete the Standard Choice form provided by your new employer and make Telstra Super your choice. See Using the Standard Choice form for instructions.
3. return the Standard Choice form to your employer along with your Employer Contribution kit.
Once your employer returns the paperwork to us they will be set up to contribute into Telstra Super on your behalf.
