No matter what your reason for changing names, Active Super members must update their policy accordingly. It’s best to change all accounts and identificaton at the same time. If you leave Active Super off the list it can lead to complications, such as discrepancies between superannuation funds and payroll records, problems when switching jobs, or difficulties when proving your identity.
Stringent identity verification rules are in place for all superannuation funds, including Aware Super. This is to safeguard your assets, given the substantial funds involved. Change names by completing the Aware Super name change form – we provide this in your personalised kit. You also need to include a certified copy of your marriage certificate or legal name change certificate, issued by Births, Deaths, and Marriages in Australia. You have the option to provide certified photo identification or authorize digital identity verification. It’s important to note that updating your name with Aware Super is just one of the many companies where this change is required.
