Participation interviews
We’ll meet with you every:
3 months for the first 18 months, then
6 months until you turn 35 years of age
At the interview
At the interview, we’ll talk with you about:
your circumstances
what you want to achieve in the future
local support services to help you to prepare for and find work, and
a personalised participation plan
When you come to your interview, bring details of any work or study you’re doing. You can also bring a relative, friend or an advocate for support, if you want.
Participation plan
We’ll help you develop a participation plan. It must include at least 1 compulsory activity such as:
meeting with an Employment Services Provider
work experience
education or training if you’re under 22 years of age
rehabilitation or treatment, or
a reconnection to a work activity if you have a mental health condition
Your payment
To keep getting DSP you must:
go to all your interviews
sign your participation plan, and
do the compulsory activity in your plan
Tell us if you can’t do these things. Call us if you need extra help to attend your interviews.
If your medical condition changes
If you give us medical evidence showing your condition has changed, we may send you for an Employment Services Assessment. This will help us work out how the changes affect your participation needs and what help you need to find and keep work.
