Earlier this week, the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority's "Early Access to Super" numbers showed that at $28Bn, early withdrawals had surpassed the Government's projection that $27 billion would be withdrawn under the scheme.
Early data shows that high numbers have been withdrawn already in Tranche 2 - so not everyone drained their super fund the first time round. So... who's feeling optimistic come October? And how far above the governmentt projections will the second wave push us?
At Together Australia, we have assembled close to 300+ advisers, who will help you determine "pro bono" whether you need to access your super early. It might be worth a chat for some people before jumping straight onto the Australian Taxation Office's site.
