Age Pension eligibility is assessed nationally by Services Australia, so living on the Central Coast does not create separate payment rules. Your age, Australian residency, income and assets are considered, and you may need to provide identity and financial documents. You can claim online through myGov linked to Centrelink, or contact Services Australia to discuss support at a local service centre. Check servicesaustralia.gov.au for current eligibility rules, payment rates and claim timeframes, as the outcome depends on your individual circumstances.
