Changing of name, address or job can mean that you lose track of some of your super. This means that there is money that belongs to you that is not currently in your super fund. Finding your super will collate your previous lost funds with your current account.
It is likely that your lost super is held by the ATO. Create an account on myGov and link it to the ATO and select ‘Super’.
Once you have done this, you will be able to see the details of all of your past and current super accounts including any lost or forgotten ones. You will also be able to find funds which have been held by the ATO on your behalf. Further, you will be able to consolidate your super funds into a single fund.
Once you have found your lost super, remember to conduct research about which fund is providing you with the best returns before you choose which fund to consolidate with.
