If you are able to transfer all or part of your UK Pension fund to Australia you would be wise to set up a Self Managed Super Fund (SMSF) and gain HMRC QROPS status.
We will assist you with the setting up and maintenance of the SMSF, and ensure that you receive the vital HMRC documentation before transferring the fund.
Naturally, you have the right to engage in your own accountant or SMSF administration team, we will work closely with them to ensure you maintain the QROPS compliance of your fund. Failure to maintain this compliance may result in an HMRC fine and levy up to 55% of the fund value.
If you do not have an SMSF administration service we will be delighted to introduce you to one of our preferred partners. We only deal with companies that provide the highest quality of service and administration so you can rest assured that your fund is working for you.
