Who can Claim a Superannuation refund?
Most individuals (excluding NZ and Australian permanent residents/citizens) who entered Australia under a temporary residency or sponsorship visa, which entitles them to work in Australia, will meet the criteria to claim a superannuation refund. You must also have earned more than $450 AUD per month to be eligible. Only when you depart Australia permanently and the temporary visa has either expired or been cancelled, can the claim be processed. However, if you have applied for permanent residency in Australia, you will not be eligible to claim a superannuation refund.
