Thanks for the advice. From what you have said there isn't any hidden penalties that we weren't aware of. We won't get the Aus pension anyway as its means tested. Super I'll take a lump sum while still in Oz and transfer as cash to the UK. We will be eligible for UK pension as have paid NI contributions for 30 years. Appreciate that this plus any other income received in the UK will be taxed. Are you aware of anything else re tax and pensions?

Can you be more specific about the tax penalties as my wife and I are moving back to the UK after 20 years and will be in retirement in the UK?
