Superannuation/TPD Claim FAQs

A TPD claim allows you to access a lump sum payment through your superannuation if you are permanently unable to work due to injury or illness. Law Works Compensation Lawyers can help you understand your policy and prepare a strong claim.

To make a TPD claim you need to lodge forms with your super fund and provide medical evidence showing you can’t return to work. Law Works Compensation Lawyers handles the process for you and ensures your claim is presented properly.

You may qualify for TPD if you are unlikely to work again in your usual job or any suitable job. At Law Works Compensation Lawyers we assess your policy and guide you through the eligibility criteria.

Most TPD claims take three to six months to resolve depending on your fund and the medical evidence. Law Works Compensation Lawyers keeps your claim moving and updates you at every stage.

Some TPD policies only look at whether you can return to your usual occupation, not any job at all. Law Works Compensation Lawyers can interpret your policy and advise if you still qualify.

If your claim is rejected, you can appeal or dispute the decision. Law Works Compensation Lawyers has experience challenging denied claims and fighting for fair outcomes.

Superannuation insurance is cover provided through your super fund for TPD, income protection and sometimes life insurance. Law Works Compensation Lawyers can help you access these benefits when you need them most.

If you are permanently unable to work, you may also be able to access your superannuation early. Law Works Compensation Lawyers can advise on the requirements and assist with your application.
