Can I check my Centrelink eligibility online before I apply?

A ClaimWise Team Answered by

You can use the Services Australia website and payment eligibility tools to check which Centrelink payments may suit your circumstances. You may need to provide information about your age, residence, income, assets, relationship status and work or study situation. An online estimate or checklist is only general guidance, and Services Australia makes the final decision after assessing your application and supporting documents. You can apply or manage claims through myGov, and check servicesaustralia.gov.au for the latest rules and requirements.
