Your preservation age is the age you can:
- access your super as a lump sum or a retirement income stream if you’ve retired, or
- start a transition to retirement income stream.
Preservation age is not the same as your Age Pension age.

If you were born:
- before 1 July 1964 you have already reached your preservation age
- on or after 1 July 1964 your preservation age is 60
