Hi, Have been in OZ now since 2006, am now a dual citizen.I was wondering if it's possible to work 6 months in the UK and 6 months in Australia every year (so I catch both summers).If it is possible do I need any special work visa requirements to do it. Thanks Again, Jay.

Hi Everyone, I have just had my 13 year armed forces pension calculated and been given a document by a company called Pension Transfers Direct which tells me the advantages of transfering it to oz or keeping it in the UK.They have quoted me a Total fee of $4,359 OZ dollars for all the transfers and admin with it.Hope this helps. Cheers, Jay

Hi Andrew, I served for 13 years in the British Forces and got a preserved a military pension which I can claim when I am 60.I emigrated to Australia in 2006, 7 years after I left and that is where I reside now.I have been contacted by quite a few Aussie companies, who have told me it would be better to transfer my preserved pension over to my super.I have ignored this advice because my Brit pension is guaranteed, however after this latest announcement I am unsure. Any advice would be welcome, Thank You, Jason Archer
