From 1 January the age to qualify for a concession to top up super with proceeds of a house sale will be reduced from 60 to 55.
Announced one week out from the May 2022 election by the Morrison government, Labor matched the pledge and legislated it after its election win.

The eligible age is as follows:
- From 1 January 2023, 55 years old or older
- From 1 July 2022, 60 years old or older
- From 1 July 2018, 65 years old or older
