To make sure we are paying you the right amount, we might send you a letter if you need to review your parents’ income details. The letter will have instructions on how your parents can update their income details, including a one-time access code they’ll need. The safest way to access myGov is through the official myGov app or by entering my.gov.au into your browser yourself.
What Happened
Your parents need to tell us about their income by the date in your letter. If they don’t, we may stop your payment until they do. If you don’t get a letter in the post or your myGov inbox, you don’t need to do anything.
