A myGov Centrelink guide can help you create or sign in to a myGov account, link Centrelink and start an online claim. You may need identity documents and details about your income, assets, living arrangements or rent, depending on the payment. After submitting information, Services Australia assesses your claim and may ask for more documents, so approval and payment timing depend on your circumstances. Use the official guide at servicesaustralia.gov.au or contact Centrelink if you need help with your application.
