At Nasfund, we believe that superannuation should be a source of strength during life’s
most difficult moments. If you or a loved one has left employment due to breast cancer or
another serious illness, here’s what you need to know about accessing your super on
medical grounds.

Can I access my super if I’ve left work due to breast cancer or a similarly serious illness?
Yes, if your condition has led to permanent inability to continue employment, you may be
eligible to withdraw your superannuation savings under medical grounds

What documents do I need?
To apply for withdrawal on medical grounds, members must submit:
- Duly completed Nasfund Withdrawal Form
- A confirmation letter from your last employer may include the reason for separation
from the employer under medical grounds
- Employment certificate(s) from previous employer(s) (if applicable)
- A copy of valid ID (Passport, National ID (NID), Nasfund ID, Drivers License or
Work ID)
- BSP Bank Account Consent form for BSP bank account holders or bank account
statement for members who bank with other banks.
- Medical reports from two separate doctors, including:
o Medical history
o Clinical records

Ensure that your doctors reports are of a progressive nature hence first and second
opinions.
Per Section 90 of the Superannuation General Provisions Act 2000 and relevant
amendments a member may apply for withdrawal on medical grounds if the illness has
rendered the individual unable to continue said employment.
