Thanks Katherine! Ive heard thst some pensioners go overseas for a holiday 6 weeks prior and 6 weeks post the end of financial year ..so technically only away for 6 weeks in each year ..but as back to back 6 weeks at a time ut ends up 12 weeks ..do you know if this is possible ? 😊

Look forward to travel insurance topic and reciprocal health agreements eg UK. Visa travel insurance revoked by banks, these recent huge insurance costs is a bottle neck to travel.

My questions are very important 1 Do I have to live in Australia for 2 years prior to be eligible for the pension, let's say 65 years old. 2 Then at 67 years old apply for the pension 3 Do I have to be receiving the pension for an additional 2 years say 69 years old before I can then leave Australia.

Hi Kathy, I still advise everyone to let Centrelink know before leaving either by calling or via MyGov. Believe me, you might get a different answer from a different officer, so to be on the safe side, it doesn't hurt to let them know. That's my advice. Not to mention that Centrelink will always ask the estimated return time for their records.

Thank you for information!! If i travel overseas for a couple of years during my 50's (or anytime before i become 67), does it affect the AWLR counting? For example, my AWLR will be exactly 35 years when i become age 67. If i travel overseas for longer than 6 months or continous 1~2 years before i become 67 (for travelling multiple countries), will my AWLR be reduced? Thank you so much!!

You did not mention that if you own your own home and you are overseas for more than six months the home becomes an asset and can reduce or cancel your pension.

How do New Zealanders who are on the Special Category visa get on when they leave the country for longer than 6 weeks if we have lived both here and New Zealand for a period of time, but less than 35 years in Australia? For example 20 years in NZ and 20 years in Australia.

Hi Kong, going overseas for less than 6 months is fine, your Age Pension will continue as normal. After 6 weeks though the supplements will stop, so you will only received the bare Pension payments, but once you return to Australia, your supplements will be reinstated.

If we come from NZ to live in Australia I know we can claim the Age pension from Australia but do we also have the choice to continue claiming NZ pension but pay Australian tax? If it is possible would we escape the Australian asset/income tests as we don’t have asset testing in NZ.
@AboutRetirementTV

HI Susan, yes I know in NZ there is no income and asset testing, however regardless of anything else in Australia you will be subject to the same testing as everyone else, so unfortunately you will have to go through Income and Assets Tests as well.
