Assessment of Income
• Earnings from employment

![Page 27: Retirement planning seminar, October 2014](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110307/555e4fcbd8b42ad74a8b4c0c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Work Bonus
• For those over Age Pension age, who receive a pension
• Disregard the first $250 per fortnight of earnings from employment
Alan earns $1,300 pf. Of this $250 pf is disregarded.
Only $1050 pf is assessed under the Age Pension income test
![Page 28: Retirement planning seminar, October 2014](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110307/555e4fcbd8b42ad74a8b4c0c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Work Bonus Balance• If you do not work, the work Bonus
amount is saved• This accumulates as the Work Bonus
Balance• Balance can reach a maximum of
$6,500Peter’s Work Bonus Balance is $500. He
returns to work & is paid $1000 in a fortnight
The $1000 income is reduced by $250 for the Work Bonus, and $500 Work Bonus Balance
Thus, $250 of the $1000 is assessed

Work Bonus - Couples
• Each person can have a Work Bonus
• But each must be over Age Pension age and receiving a pension
• Jane and Dan earn $600 pf each.
• They both receive a Work Bonus so only $350 each is assessed under the pension income test
![Page 30: Retirement planning seminar, October 2014](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110307/555e4fcbd8b42ad74a8b4c0c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Work Bonus
• Fortnightly assessment– Fortnightly reporting for some

Structuring Income Streams in Retirement
One of the most important issues of retirement is ensuring you have a well-structured and sustainable retirement income strategy. A strategy that is proving popular is to take an approach that segments your income into tiers that relate to specific retirement time periods.
•The first and most important investment tier is Cash. This tier should hold enough money to cover income payments for three to five years depending on your investment risk profile.
•The second tier should include a conservative or stable investment option. These options hold a large percentage of fixed interest investments and hold 50 – 70% in defensive assets which reduces the risk in these options when compared to more aggressive investment options.
•The third tier in this portfolio consists of investments that are traditionally more risky and volatile such as AvSuper's High Growth, Australian Shares, Growth and International Shares options.
