When travelling outside Australia you should check to see how your travels may affect your payment. You can now do this quickly and easily using your Centrelink account, through myGov.
To tell us about your overseas travel, log on to myGov and select your Centrelink account, select Personal Details from the side menu and then select Travelling Outside of Australia. You can then input your travel plans.
After answering a few simple questions, you will see information tailored to your circumstances about how your payment will be affected, and any recommended action you should take before you depart.
Once you have advised us of your travel details you will be provided with a receipt number to confirm your details have been updated.
If your circumstances are more complex, you will be advised to phone or visit us so we can discuss your plans in more detail.
You can also now use your Centrelink online account to:
view your current and future overseas travel details we already know about
add new details for future overseas travel for your partner’s or dependants’ details if they are travelling with you
update or remove future overseas travel details
update certain travel details while you are overseas
It is important your details are up to date before you travel. You can now update more of these details online, including overseas phone details, interpreter spoken language details and edit future contact details.
