Q&A of the month
Q: We are a married couple, I am 68 and my wife is 41. We own our own home but now have a reverse mortgage of approx $200,000 on it receiving $5000 per month which we use to live on. We have $550,000 of investments – all shares, of which $150,000 are listed and $400,000 are unlisted. All investments are in my name only. I have very little super – currently about $15,000 as I cashed in most of it to use for investments (silly me!). Anyway, my main question is for the purposes of calculating if I can claim any pension for me, would the value of our investments be halved given we are a couple? Thank you and I would appreciate an indicative answer and I understand any feedback would be of general guidance only.
A: A couple’s assets are not halved for Age Pension purposes, but the assets and income test thresholds for a couple are higher than for a single person.
If only one member of the couple is eligible for Age Pension, they receive half of the combined couple rate.
Any amount held in a superannuation accumulation account by a person aged under 67 is not counted in either the income or assets tests.
