Redundancy
Optimising your redundancy benefits
Securing your retirement benefits
Maintaining lifestyle in retirement
Maximising TAX FREE retirement income
Where there were once jobs for life, it is now a fact that the average person will face redundancy 3 times during their career.
Along with looking for a new job, perhaps starting your own business or deciding to retire early, what do you do with the lump sum payout you receive?
Common questions to consider:
- What are the elements of my redundancy payment?
- What is considered an Eligible Termination Payment (ETP)?
- What tax concession do you receive on your ETP?
- How is the ETP paid?
- How do I make sure I get the most out of my payment?
- What do I do with my super?
- I’ve decided I want to roll over my ETP. What do I do?
- Am I entitled to Centrelink benefits?
- What if I want to use redundancy as an opportunity to retire early?
- Do I need to review my insurance arrangements?
