If you get Age Pension and your circumstances change, you need to tell us

Published: 6 May 2026

You have 14 days to tell us about any changes to your circumstances. If you don’t do this, we may pay you too much.

You need to tell us if your circumstances change, such as:

  • Your relationship status
  • If you sell or purchase a home
  • Your income and assets.

If you have a partner, we also need to know if their circumstances change, even if they don’t get a payment from us.

Find more information about what changes to tell us about when you get Age Pension.
