What's your visa status? 457/Temporary? PR? Citizen?

Re: Superannuation??

I understand if you're on a 457 then you can but if you have PR then no.

Have a read through this section here on the ATO website.

My understanding is that you can only apply for it once your visa is cancelled/expired and you have left Australia. Good luck.

Definitely. Assuming you can find a low fee structure, then that can grow tax free until you retire.
