In 2026, you can generally access Centrelink online by signing in to your myGov account and linking Centrelink, or by using the Express Plus Centrelink app where available. Online services may let you make a claim, check payment information, report employment income, update personal details and upload documents. The options and processing times depend on your payment type and circumstances, and Services Australia makes the final decision on any claim or change. Check servicesaustralia.gov.au for current instructions, eligibility rules and help if you cannot access your account.
