Superannuation Splitting Orders Q&A

Superannuation Splitting Orders

"*" indicates required fields

Step 1 of 8

This Q&A will prepare tailored Superannuation Splitting Orders (draft) to be incorporated into your Proposed Consent Orders.

They are ‘draft’ Superannuation Splitting Orders for a few reasons:
1. The trustee of the superannuation fund that is being split must approve the wording—this is a legal requirement
2. You and your partner will need to review and finalise the Orders with any necessary changes
