When you can withdraw your super
Your super is there to fund your retirement, so you can generally only withdraw your super when you reach a certain age. But there are some situations where you may be able to withdraw your super early.
Where your income in retirement will come from
Your super savings will be a key source of income for you when you retire, but not the only one. You may have money coming from:
- Investments or savings outside super
- The Government Age Pension
- A salary if you choose to work in retirement
Simple steps to grow your super now
Regardless of how far or close retirement is for you, there are some simple choices you can make now to grow and maximise your savings. The more super you have when you retire, the more choices you’ll have about what you can do.

You can choose where and how your savings are invested. This decision can make a difference to how much money you’ll have when you retire. Choose from our MySuper Lifecycle investment approach or your own mix of investment options.
