The period starts on the later of either:
- the date the assuree arrives in Australia
- the date they get their visa.
You must tell us when your assuree:
- arrives in country Australia
- gets their visa.
Normally assurees and their dependants won’t get income support from us during the specified period. This is even if they are exempt from the 4 year waiting period for most payments.
If we do agree to give income support to your assuree, you’ll need to pay us back.
