How much Australian super will you get back? After DASP tax, Working Holiday Makers (visas 417/462) keep 35% of their balance (65% tax). Most other temporary visa holders (such as Student 500 or Skilled 482) keep 65% of the taxed element (35% tax)—provided the money is still with your fund. Once super moves to the ATO as unclaimed money (~6 months post-departure), tax becomes 65% for everyone.
