This information about the changes seems to be coming out in drips. First, it was people who had less than $6,000 in their super fund. Now I have read here, Hannah, and in The Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance newsletter, that it also refers to funds with no contributions in 16 months. I can only deduce that this is the definition of 'inactive' that has been used around the changes. It defines what is 'inactive'. If that is the case, this is the first time that I have seen such a definition. Maybe I have missed something, but I have to keep going back to my engaged, low super balance daughter with further stumbled-upon information, to suggest what she might do come July 28, and she must find me very 'boring'. Whoever is the source of the information - the ATO? - seems to be making a ham-fisted effort.
