Transferring Funds From Other Super SchemesTRANSFERRING FUNDS FROM OTHER SUPER SCHEMES
If you have funds in another super scheme, you may be able to transfer them to your KiwiSaver account. Here’s what to do:
- Contact your existing super scheme administrator to check that they allow transfers to registered KiwiSaver schemes.
- Make sure you understand the terms of transferring out. Are there any fees or penalties? What will be your final balance?
- Be aware that any money you transfer into a KiwiSaver scheme will be subject to all the KiwiSaver rules, e.g. you will not be able to access that money until you are eligible to withdraw from KiwiSaver (at age 65, or if you joined after age 60 it will be 5 years after you joined.)
- If you are satisfied with the terms, fill in our Authority to Transfer form. Download form.
- We will contact the scheme and arrange the transfer of funds to your GMK KiwiSaver account.
