A transition to retirement account-based pension is an account-based income stream that involves drawing down a pension from your superannuation. (It is also referred to as an allocated pension).
You can set up a transition to retirement account-based pension once you reach preservation age (55 for many people), even if you are still working.
Once set up you can withdraw a maximum of 10% of the pension balance each year, while you continue to work.

MEET ANDREW

Andrew, age 55, wants to increase his superannuation savings ahead of retirement and plans to continue working full-time for several more years.
He has been saving in three different superannuation accounts but he feels he could be doing better.
Andrew met with a financial planner at Australian Catholic Superannuation and was advised to do two things:
1. Consolidate: his three super accounts into one account with Australian Catholic Superannuation
2. Convert: most of his newly combined superannuation balance into a Transition to Retirement Account-based Pension Account.

Andrew starts an Australian Catholic Superannuation Transition to Retirement Account-based Pension Account with $350,000 (leaving $5,000 in his super account).
He chooses to receive the allowed maximum $35,000 pa (10% of his new pension account balance) as a monthly pension paid into his bank account.
In doing this Andrew saves tax because investment earnings on his $350,000 in the pension account are now tax-free.

The tax saved provides a boost to Andrew’s retirement savings.
