About this calculator
NZ Superannuation is the universal pension paid from age 65 to anyone meeting the residency test. The fortnightly amount depends on your living situation: single living alone, single sharing, or married/civil-union/de-facto.
- Single living alone: highest rate.
- Single sharing: about 8% lower.
- Married each: lower per-person but higher household total.
- NZ Super is taxable — the rate paid is gross (M tax code).
Frequently asked questions
Does other income reduce NZ Super?
No — NZ Super isn't income-tested. But other income can push you into a higher PAYE tier, reducing the after-tax super.
