Finally submit a super batch through Superannuation and this will send a message to the superfund to create an account for the new member and will deposit the super they are owed into their new account. If this fails, you will be refunded the amount.

You will need to change the member number once the employee has received their new member number by email from the superfund.

For some superfunds, you will not be able to use this method. In this case, you will be refunded and you will need to contact the superfund to do this manually.
