Is your super assessed yet?

If a spouse is over 60 but under 67 and they take money from their super for home repairs, do you need to inform centrelink if their spouse is over 67 and receiving an aged pension.

The solution for pensions is simple. If you have paid taxes all your life you deserve to get a pension. However, the OZ Government makes it very complex for the little people. In the case of themselves the OZ Government makes it very simple.

It isn't an entitlement. It was sold as such when it was introduced after one of the world wars, but it was taken away in about the 1970s. Now, the government pension is a miserable small pittance that you are entitled to if you have failed to manage to take care of yourself financially. It's a miserable way to live, on a pittance and undignified. And Centrelink will take it off you & make it as hard as possible to let you have your rightful entitlements. For example- on your death bed and didn't fill in a form? Pension cut off. Earned money in one lump sum for a 6 month project? Goodbye pension - easier to not earn than argue with them.

Now, I relied that pensioners are dictated by how much money they have in their bank account. This is what a democratic nation against their Senior Citizens because the government use this system to collect taxes. They are too frightened to go after the wealthy and multi businesses. But if you coalition, they do things in favour of their wealthy supporters disregarding pensioners who are struggling.

Asset testing is criminal. Australia should take a leaf out of New Zealand’s book when it comes to a senior pension. EVERYONE gets it from the age of 65.

"I have a query. I spent 19 years working at the RBA and had a superannuation account. Following my redundancy in 2008, my superannuation account became inaccessible for additional contributions. Currently, I work on a casual basis, and due to being born with a hearing disability, I have finally been put on the disability pension. (I was on 'Newstart' then Job keeper') I'm 52 years old. Each visit to Centrelink leaves me bewildered; the personnel I encounter vary, and it seems like the rules keep changing. I'm left wondering if Centrelink is considering my locked superannuation account in their assessments. What are your thoughts on this?"

@AboutRetirementTV
@AboutRetirementTV Жыл бұрын
It is a pension account as it does pay you an income up to the limit, but from tax perspective it is still a super, hence paying 15% tax on all earnings. Here is my video on TTR: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2bNgKN6pL2Aj68

They find out what you own, then tell you what you may receive. It is like going to a birthday party. When you inherit or win big, you need to spend it within 12 months.

Thank you for this information Katherine. I think that in one of your other videos you advise that your "place of residence" is not regarded as an asset in the Asset Test". Is that correct.

Why wouldn't he start a pension with an amount up to the threshold and retain the remainder into his superannuation? Why draw the whole lot out, and contribute some back into super? That's a stupid idea!!!!

What no one talks about is that ( as Usual ) we picked the worst possible Pension scheme known to man . Just look at European schemes , or better still , Singapore,s scheme , and you will see that there are much better ways to implement Super instead of having 500+ separate funds , all vying for your business and charging Many billions of $$$$ in fees and charges . Not to mention exposing you to incessant amounts of advertising . Why advertise if you product is so fantastic ? And they love to cherry pick the returns by quoting odd years of investment . Why quote 38 years when most of us didn't get super until the mid 90s ? BTW , most Euro schemes ( called "aged pensions" ) calculate your earnings over your working life and pay you 75% of that when you retire . You get out what you put in . Which will allow you to continue to live in the style you were accustomed . And the government still get their share of the tax earned .

You should claim a government if you have a million dollars or more in assets. It's just plain greed if you do. The pension is supposed to be for the poor not the rich.

Many many countries around the word disagree. It should not be means tested. So what you are saying is that if you have worked hard; saved and done well you should be penalised right?

Not really. A lot of people have studied and worked hard in order to improve their lives and get into paying jobs (and payhigher taxes for the privilege). Then they forgo holidays, restaurants, expensive clothing, drinks, cigarettes, partying, expensive cars and on and on as I have done and as my parents did, and then are penalised by government for having saved. Yeah, real greedy. Meanwhile wasters who accuse savers of being greedy get the biggest handouts. Many pay no net tax. Pot calling kettle. Waster's want it all. They spent it all, waste it all, get handouts along the way and a full pension at the end and complain that it isn't enough. So who are the greedy ones? I sacrificed a lot to pay down my mortgage and save for my retirement while those opposite me are living in government housing for decades and drive fancy cars. So who are the greedy ones?

@@toby9999 there are some pensioners who want to have the same standard of living that they had when they worked. It's not possible to have all the extras when you are on a pension. It is enough how ever to pay for the basics. Pensioners should be grateful for what they receive from the government

@@anthonyscully2998 You're obviously not relying on a pension for daily living. I know some who need to juggle electricity and food costs just to survive. I have worked all my life and have a small super fund, and when that runs out I have no further income supplement. I do not think it will affect me, I know I will no longer be able to go for a weekly coffee, or a monthly movie, or an annual holiday. If I sell my car I will have reduced expenses, and hopefully will be agile enough still to catch the bus to the shops. To generalise and say pensioners are greedy is just a short-sighted statement. Get someone to do some research for you, check the increasing price of fresh food and power costs and work out just why pensioners would like more money to live on.
