The short answer

Complete AustralianSuper's Change my details form (sections 1, 2 and 4). Attach a certified copy of your marriage certificate or change of name certificate from Births, Deaths and Marriages.

Upload it at australiansuper.com/upload-document or post it to AustralianSuper, GPO Box 1901, Melbourne VIC 3001. It can't be done in the online account. On the Powered plan, Surname Switch fills the whole form in, signature included.

1 Online or not

Your name needs the form, not the app

AustralianSuper lets you change your email and postal address online, no documents needed. Your name is different. To update your name, gender or date of birth, download AustralianSuper's Change my details form. Send it in with certified proof.

The form is for Super account members.

Retirement account (TTR or Choice Income): a separate retirement version of the form applies.
Its address: Locked Bag 6, Carlton South VIC 3053.

2 The form

We fill your form in for you

For a change of name, complete sections 1, 2 and 4, in capital letters.

Section 1, existing details: your current name, title, date of birth, member number, address, phone and email.
Section 2, only what's changing: your new name and title.
Section 4: your signature and the date.

On the Powered plan, Surname Switch fills all of that in for you. The only thing we ask for is your AustralianSuper member number.

The "Name" box is ticked. Your new name goes into section 2. Your signature is stamped, with today's date. The form comes back ready to send. Your signature is used in the moment and never kept.

3 The proof

A certified copy of your certificate

Attach a certified copy of your marriage certificate or change of name certificate from Births, Deaths and Marriages. Ceremonial or celebrant certificates are not accepted. Divorce certificates aren't accepted either, as proof of a name change.

The certifier must sight the original and add their details.

Sign the copy: "a true and correct copy of the original document sighted."
Add their name, location, phone number, qualification and the date.
Who can certify: a pharmacist, medical practitioner, lawyer, post office employee, financial adviser or planner, or police officer.
Certification must be dated within 6 months. Undated documents are rejected.
