Can a superannuation fund get access to my ATO information if I give them consent?

My understanding is that the relationship between superannuation funds and ATO is a one way street. The super has to report to ATO about my employee's contribution.

But what if, similar to a tax agent, they had my consent to get all (or some) of my information from ATO? Could that happen and legally, is that channel open?

Hi Shahin,

It depends on what information you mean? A superannuation fund or Financial professional can potentially act on your behalf to obtain information you authorise them to, however I am not to sure how a superannuation fund would get much access to ATO details besides Lost superannuation or other details of superannuation accounts.

I hope this helps but I would need more details in regards to your query before giving you an accurate answer.

Thanks,
