BUSSQ during Covid-19

Please note - if you are waiting on the release of your funds obtained from early access of your super due to Covid-19, you can expect to receive them within 5-7 business days of the ATO approving your application. 

The current global COVID-19 health crisis has caused significant disruption to world financial markets, and increasingly likely wider social impacts to our daily lives.

We've put in place plans to continue to provide our members and employers with the service they are used to, but anticipate that if the current situation worsens, we may experience unavoidable disruptions or delays due to higher than normal call volumes and/or a reduced workforce. 

We have therefore put in place alternative ways you can access information online and assistance. Please visit this page for the latest updates as we will be communicating any relevant information as it becomes available.

Financial hardship and compassionate claims

The Federal Government has announced temporary changes to the early release of super under compassionate grounds as part of its COVID-19 response.

Commencing from mid-April 2020, the change will allow those affected by the Coronavirus to access up to $10,000 of their super in 2019-2020 and a further $10,000 in 2020-21.
