Who can get it
You can get a Commonwealth Seniors Health Card if you meet certain criteria.
You can get a card if you either:
- have reached Age Pension age
- don’t qualify for a payment from us or the Department of Veterans' Affairs
- meet an income test
- are an Australian resident currently living in Australia.
You must tell us your and your partner's tax file numbers, unless you're exempt.
