Pension transfer

Hi guys ,

 

Have decided to transfer NHS pension to Australian Super fund ( QROPS ) . We arrived in June 2011 and had initially thought we would just be here for a couple of years but changed our mind and received PR in Feb 2013 . As the transfer is happening more than 6 months after we left the UK we will have to pay some tax on the growth of the fund ( which we can elect the receiving super fund to pay @ 15% ) .

 

However , is it the growth since we became PR ( Feb 2013 ) or since we arrived in Aus ( June 2011) on a 457 ? In case it is since the date we received PR , do we have to request the NHS Pensions to do another calculation for that date ( Feb 2013 ) so that we can calculate the growth from then ? The NHS will only provide this extra calculation at a cost . Have tried to use the residency calculator on the ATO website - not entirely clearcut . Would appreciate any advice .
