Common questions

Which Centrelink calculator do I need?
Start with the category that matches your situation — Job Seekers, Families, Carers & Disability, Students, or Age Pension & Seniors — below. Most people only need one or two calculators; the categories are there to help you find the right one quickly.
How often do Centrelink payment rates change?
Most Centrelink payment rates are indexed on 20 March and 20 September each year. Some payments — including Carer Allowance and student rates — are indexed on 1 January, and asset and deeming thresholds are usually updated on 1 July. Each calculator on this page uses the current rates for its own indexation cycle.
Are these calculators free, and do I need to log in?
Yes — every calculator here is free and doesn't require a myGov or Centrelink login. They give you an estimate to help you plan; always confirm your actual payment through Centrelink or myGov before relying on it.
