    Hi JoanneCCP,

     

    Thank you for your post. 

     

    A valid membership number is a requirement for super payments to be processed through our clearing house (SuperChoice). I would advise getting in contact with these previous employees for this information as they need to supply this information if they wish to receive their contributions.

    Do reach out if you have any further queries.

    Thanks Sam, I changed their membership numbers to Unknown_1 and Unknown_2 and was able to process. As AustralianSuper advised me to use 'Unknown' as their interim membership number, I follow them up & advise accordingly and in the meantime will wait & see if their contributions are returned
