The Age Pension is taxable income, and so is the pension supplement basic amount — the former GST supplement, $30.10/fn — because it is taxed the same way as the pension it is paid with. The rest of the pension supplement is the tax exempt pension supplement, and the Energy Supplement is exempt as well. No means-test reduction applies, so these are the full component amounts. SAPTO and the tax-free threshold mean a full-rate pensioner with no other income still pays no tax. How Centrelink payments are taxed.

FAQ
How much Age Pension will I get with $2 million in super?
With $2 million in financial assets (super, savings, shares) and no other assets or income, a single homeowner would get $0.00 per fortnight ($0 per year) — no Age Pension under the normal means test. A homeowner couple with the same combined financial assets would get $0.00 per fortnight combined ($0 per year) — no Age Pension under the normal means test. These figures exclude the family home, car, contents and any other income — add those in the calculator below for your own numbers.
Does having $2m in super stop me getting the Age Pension?
Not on its own. The Age Pension assets test full-rate threshold for a single homeowner is $333,000 and the cut-off is $733,500 (higher again for non-homeowners and couples). $2 million in financial assets alone is above the single homeowner cut-off, so eligibility then depends on being a couple or a non-homeowner, or on other assets being low enough.
Is this based on total assets or just super?
This page treats $2 million as your total financial assets — the sum of superannuation in pension phase, bank accounts, shares and managed funds, since that is what most people mean by "how much in super". It does not add a home, car, contents or other assets: enter those separately in the calculator below for your full assets-test position.
Single vs couple — does $2m go further?
The couple figure above assumes $2 million is your COMBINED financial assets as a couple, both eligible for the Age Pension. Couples get a higher combined assets-test threshold ($499,000 vs $333,000 for singles) but a lower maximum rate per person, so the outcome depends on where $2 million sits relative to each threshold.
