How do I claim TPD insurance through my super?
Common question · Superannuation Disputes · Australia · 23 October 2026
General information from Lawmateanz
Many super funds include total and permanent disability (TPD) insurance. Contact your fund to start a claim.
You'll usually need medical evidence that you're unlikely to work again in a suitable job.
If your claim is declined, you can complain to the fund and then AFCA.
Some lawyers specialise in TPD claims.
