Carer Payment may be available if you provide constant care to someone with a severe disability, illness or medical condition, or to an adult who is frail aged. Services Australia assesses the care needs using medical information, and you must generally meet residence, income and assets requirements. You may be able to receive Carer Payment while working or studying, but limits and reporting obligations can apply. Eligibility and payment rates depend on your circumstances, so check the current rules and claim process at servicesaustralia.gov.au.
