From 1 October 2021 to rollover super to or from your SMSF, you’ll need to use SuperStream. To use SuperStream, your SMSF needs an active Electronic Service Address (ESA). We don’t offer an electronic message service that provides rollover SuperStream services. You can get an ESA from an external SMSF messaging provider, or alternatively, you may like to consider appointing a professional to help you manage SuperStream rollovers on your behalf.
Once you’ve engaged the ESA provider to send through the SuperStream message, they should also provide you with the account details of the receiving fund to arrange the transfer of cash. If your client doesn’t have a Macquarie superannuation or pension account, you'll need to complete an application. You can do this by submitting an online application.
If you’re rolling over funds into an existing pension account, you’ll also need to provide a dated and signed Pension Update form. You can find this form on Adviser Tools.
