Are you getting your fair share in government benefits?

Over half of all Australian households receive some form of Government payment.  Are you getting your share?

The Australian Government provides a range of benefits depending on your circumstances. They are primarily targeted at people in one or more of the following categories:

• Families and parents
  
• Older Australians
• Disabled and carers
• Students and young people
• The unemployed
• Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders

Some of these are means tested – that is they depend on how much you earn or how much you own. Others are depended only upon your current circumstances. 

Not all are available to new migrants.
