Ask your parents or guardians to update their income details

Published: 30 September 2026

If you get a letter from us about your Youth Allowance for job seekers payment, give it to your parents or guardians so they can give us their income details.

We check your parents’ or guardians’ income each year to make sure you’re eligible and getting the right amount.

If they don’t give us their income details by the due date, your payment may stop.

If you don’t get a letter, you don’t need to do anything. We already have the details we need.
