Keep your personal details, income information and relationship status up to date in your myGov account linked to Centrelink. Report your income and any requested changes by the due dates, and keep records of payslips, childcare costs and Centrelink messages. Check whether mutual obligation requirements or appointments apply to you, as these can depend on your circumstances and your child’s age. Services Australia decides eligibility and payment rates, so check the latest guidance at servicesaustralia.gov.au or contact Centrelink if your situation changes.
