ACC Rules for Superannuitants
1 March 2025

We’ve recently assisted with ACC claims for a number of clients who are also receiving National Super. During the process ACC clarified the rules around eligibility for “earnings related compensation” for superannuitants.


They make interesting reading, so we’ve summarised them below. 

  1. If the claimant is injured before they turn 63, they are eligible for weekly compensation payments until they turn 65. 
  2. If the claimant is injured after they turn 63 but before they turn 65, they are eligible for weekly compensation payments for two years from the date the payments start. 
  3. If the claimant is injured after they turn 65, they can receive both National Super and weekly compensation payments for two years. After two years, they can only receive the National Super.
