Payments to help with the costs of moving for study or training

Published: 5 November 2026

You could get extra support if you need to move away from home for work or study.

If you’re a tertiary student or Australian Apprentice, 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 are paid automatically with a student payment like Youth Allowance, ABSTUDY or Austudy.

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