  • Most Kiwis assume that once they hit 65, they’ll automatically qualify for NZ Super. But that’s not always the case. In fact, thousands of people will miss out entirely – even if they’re New Zealand citizens.

  • In this episode, Ed and Andrew break down the surprising rules that can stop you from receiving Super, and the “gotchas” you need to watch out for.

  • You’ll learn:
    • The exact criteria you need to meet – including how long you must have lived in New Zealand
    • Why spending too much time overseas could see your Super cancelled
    • How foreign pensions (like UK or US state pensions) can reduce – or even wipe out – your NZ Super payments
  • NZ Super isn’t an entitlement; it’s a benefit. That means you need to play by the rules to qualify. Don’t get caught out.

    • Here is the link to check if you meet the criteria for NZ Super
