We’ll send letters to remind you to give us a new estimate for the next financial year.

We use your estimate to work out how much FTB and CCS to pay you. It’s important you give us an accurate family income estimate for 2022-23. Think about any income you’re likely to get during the financial year.

If you don’t give us a new estimate, we’ll estimate your income for you. We’ll use your income information from the current year, and we may adjust it.  However, this amount may not be accurate as we know circumstances change, so it’s important you check your income and update if needed. If it’s too low, you may get a debt. If it's too high, we may pay you less than you’re entitled to.

You can give us a new estimate using either:

• your Centrelink online account through myGov
• your Express Plus Centrelink mobile app.

Make sure you select 2022-23 before you start the update.
