Reapplication process at 52 weeks

Sole Parent Support is paid to help clients support their family while they are looking for or preparing for work. If the client still needs Sole Parent Support after 52 weeks they are required to complete the 52 week reapplication process.

Generally all clients getting Sole Parent Support must reapply and complete a Comprehensive Work Assessment as part of the 52 week reapplication process, regardless of their personal situation or current work obligations.

Note clients getting Emergency Benefit, where the equivalent benefit is Sole Parent Support, are not required to complete the 52 week reapplication process.

There are situations where a client is not required to complete the reapplication process.
