Nice one, you’re almost halfway.
It’s great to find $20 in your pocket, but it’s even better to find super you’ve lost track of. Have you checked to see if you have more than one super account?

Track down your lost super
Losing track of super is more common than you might think. If you’ve ever changed your name, or changed jobs, you could have super with other funds you have lost track of. You might also have super being held for you by the ATO.
The good news is it’s easy to find out if you have any lost or unclaimed super with myGov or with AustralianSuper:
- To search, you'll need to log in to your account. Please have two forms of ID ready and make sure you've provided us with your Tax File Number (TFN). You can check if you’ve supplied us with your TFN by logging into your online account and clicking 'Account', then 'Tax File Number'; or check in the AustralianSuper mobile app under 'My details'.
- Once you locate and receive any lost or unpaid super you might have, consider consolidating your super into a single account. It could make things easier to manage and could also mean fewer fees2.

Disclaimers
- Australian Tax Office (ATO): Super data: total lost (fund-held) and ATO-held super 2024-25 as at 30 June 2025, last updated 29 October 2025. Lost super (fund-held) includes both uncontactable and inactive super. ATO-held super includes unclaimed super money (USM) and super holding account (SHA).
- Before making a decision to combine your super, consider any fees or charges that may apply, and the effect a transfer may have on benefits in your other fund such as insurance cover. We recommend you consider seeking financial advice. If you wish to claim a tax deduction for personal super contributions, you must lodge a notice of intent to claim a tax deduction with your other fund before you combine your super.
