Open a TTR account
To open a TTR account with QSuper, you'll need to meet the following conditions:
You can get up to 10% of your balance from a TTR account each year in income payments. You can't make lump sum withdrawals from this type of account, like you can with a Retirement Income account.
The current preservation age is 60. If you're between age 60 and 64, you may be eligible to open a TTR account.
No, but you could be eligible for a retirement bonus if you open a Retirement Income account or Lifetime Pension.
You can transfer part or all of your Defined Benefit to our TTR Income account if you're still working and have reached your preservation age. Defined Benefit accounts work differently to other QSuper products, so consider getting advice to learn about your options before making a decision.
No, insurance isn't available with our TTR account. If you have insurance and want to keep it, make sure you keep enough money in your Accumulation account to pay the premiums.
When you turn 65, your TTR account will be automatically converted into a Retirement Income account.

TTR strategies can be complicated and aren't suited to everyone. It's a good idea to get advice from a qualified financial adviser to see if a TTR strategy is right for your personal circumstances. Find out more about financial advice options.
