It is recommended that you lodge the application as early as possible once the year has commenced.
- Eligibility for the School Card is based on the combined family gross income from the previous financial year
- Eligibility is not dependent on someone in the family receiving any Centrelink benefits or Family Tax benefits
- Families who apply for School Card assistance can do so by lodging the Income Audit Application Form at their local campus or by applying online
- When lodged on-line the application will automatically be emailed to all government schools where the child(ren) attend, (ie where two children attend different schools, both schools will receive a copy of the application).
- We strongly encourage you to lodge your application as soon as possible.
Please direct any enquiries to the Finance Officer at your local Campus.
