There are many questions to be answered with regards to whether you future wealth will benefit from a pension transfer and this section has been created to guide your through the process.

The thrust of the legislation is to tax the growth of pension funds from the date Australian residency is taken up, until funds are transferred to a complying Australian superannuation scheme.
