TPD Cover in Super: Safety Net

TPD Insurance in Super: A Financial Safety Net

Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) insurance within your superannuation is a vital financial safety net. If you are unable to work due to a permanent illness or injury, TPD insurance can provide a lump-sum payment, helping you cover essential expenses and secure your financial future.

At Claimsplus Lawyers, we specialise in guiding Australians through the complexities of TPD claims, ensuring you access the financial support you need during challenging times.

Who Is Eligible for a TPD Claim?

Eligibility for a TPD claim depends on meeting specific criteria set by your superannuation fund.

Key Requirements Include:

• Prove Inability to Work: You must show that an illness or injury prevents you from performing your current job or any other suitable work.
• Demonstrate Permanence: Medical evidence must confirm that your condition is long-term or permanent.
• Meet Waiting Periods: Most superannuation policies include a waiting period before a claim can be processed.

How Much Could You Receive?

The payout for a TPD claim depends on your superannuation policy’s terms, including the level of coverage and any associated life insurance.

• Average Payouts: Many TPD claims range from $30,000 to $200,000, with some exceeding $500,000 depending on the policy and contributions.
• Multiple Super Accounts: If you’ve had several jobs with different superannuation accounts, each may include its own TPD insurance, potentially allowing you to claim from multiple accounts.

Understanding the specifics of your policy is essential to maximising your benefits.
