Becoming a non resident FTP (for tax purposes) in Oz is quite simple. But you need to do the math.
I am a non resident FTP....and still get to keep everything (except tax benefit, medicare, and cant contribute to Oz superannuation). I did sell my house.
Sounds like Canada is very very different to Oz. Our process of becoming non resident FTP is quite simple.
non resident FTP in Oz you can still hold real estate (although cant negative gear etc), and can still hold bank accounts (but pay tax on interest).
Wow i do find it interesting that you cant roll one super account into another? As long as you didnt contribute I couldnt see it being a problem, but surely you could argue to roll one into another and save on fees is only management. I would maybe seek alternate advice as i think your accountant might be just playing it safe. Though that can be a good strategy.
There is also no reason why you cant get full access and take all your super out and put it in an offshore fund that may be doing better to add to the argument that you didnt intend to return to australia.

Bugger!In the olden days (about 10 years ago) it was possible to access your preserved super benefits when you left Australia permanently subject to meeting certain conditions. The rules were changed from July 1998 which now means that any Australian citizen who moves overseas permanently cannot access super benefits unless they satisfy a condition of release. The rationale for this policy is that Australian citizens may return to Australia to retire, or at least have the option of retiring in Australia.
