Good to know

Your questions, answered

What is a TPD claim?
TPD stands for Total and Permanent Disability. Many Australian superannuation funds include TPD insurance, which can pay a lump sum if an injury or illness leaves you unable to work in your usual job, or any job suited to your education, training or experience.
Does the injury or illness have to be work related?
No. Unlike workers' compensation, TPD cover through super can apply to injuries and illnesses from any cause, including conditions that developed over time, as long as they stop you from working.
Do I need a lawyer to make a TPD claim?
You don't always need a lawyer, but TPD claims involve policy definitions, medical evidence and insurer requirements. Having a legal specialist can help you understand your entitlements and put forward the strongest claim.
How long do I have to make a claim?
Time limits can apply and vary by fund and policy, so it's best to get advice as soon as possible after you stop working.
What could I be entitled to?
A successful TPD claim is generally paid as a lump sum. The amount depends on your super fund's policy and level of cover. Some people also have cover in more than one fund.
