Centrelink Strategies

Centrelink is an Australian government program that delivers a range of payments and services for people at times of major change.

This includes older Australians (retirees / pension recipients), families, job seekers, carers and people with disabilities.

Centrelink does great work for the community, but sometimes it can feel like dealing with Centrelink directly can be navigating a rabbit warren.

Centrelink Strategies for Pre-Retirees, Retirees and Aged Care

There are payments and services available to help older Australians with the ongoing costs of living. People who are retiring, and those working past retirement age, may be eligible for a pension or part pension. Topping up your income with the Age Pension or another allowance can make your savings last longer, and can contribute to the standard of living you will have throughout your retirement. Receiving the pension through Centrelink can be a tricky and time-consuming process that many people would prefer to not deal with.

Your Financial Framework adviser can deal with Centrelink on your behalf, or just help you along the way as you need it.
