Tertiary students and Australian Apprentices can get extra support if they need to move away from home for work or study.

You could get payments to help with:

  • moving costs from a regional or remote area
  • rent
  • travel between your home and place of study.

Some of these payments are paid automatically with a student payment like Youth Allowance, ABSTUDY or Austudy.

Others, you’ll need to claim if you’re eligible.

It’s time to check what you can get in 2026 now.
