Update your income details to avoid your child’s payment stopping

Published: 2 October 2024

If your child gets Youth Allowance or ABSTUDY from us, we may have sent them a letter asking for your income details.

If your child is 21 or younger, we may have sent them a letter in September asking for your income details. This is to make sure we’re paying your child the right amount.

The letter will tell you how to give us your income information online and the final date to submit it.

This will avoid your child’s payment stopping. If you don’t know your total income, you can give us an estimate.

If your child didn’t get a letter, you don’t need to do anything.
