It’s not too late to update your income details

Published: 3 December 2025

If your child got a letter asking for your income details for Youth Allowance or ABSTUDY, it’s not too late to update this information.

If your child is dependent and getting a payment from us, we may have sent them a letter asking for your income details.

This is so we can make sure we’re paying your child the right payment and right amount.

While the deadline in the letter may have passed, you can still give your income details to us. Follow the instructions in their letter before the end of the year.

If you don’t know your total income, you can give us an estimate.

If we didn’t send your child a letter, you don’t need to do anything. That’s because we already know your income.

Find out how to update your parental income details now.
