If you’ve changed jobs, moved house, or worked in Australia on a temporary visa, there’s a chance some of your money is sitting unclaimed with the government. The good news is it isn’t lost. It’s simply waiting to be claimed. According to new data released by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) last year, nearly $19 billion in lost and unclaimed superannuation is waiting to be claimed by over seven million people. In this podcast, registered tax agent Puneet Singh explains where this money goes, how the ATO holds it and the simple steps you can take to check if you’re owed money and how to claim it.
