What payment you can get and how much

Your child’s living arrangements determine which allowance or supplement you get under the Assistance for Isolated Children (AIC) Scheme.

The amount of Assistance for Isolated Children you get depends on the student's living arrangements during the school year and number of eligible children in your family.

If you get another payment from us, you may also get the Assistance for Isolated Children payment.

Assistance for Isolated Children payments are made per term or fortnight depending on the payment type.
