Change in income
When a client is getting Supported Living Payment (for the severely disabled) that is being paid in Australia, the client will need to advise Services Australia - International Services when there is any change in their income.
Services Australia - International Services may need to take the income into account and adjust the rate of the client's Australian Disability Support Pension (for the severely disabled). This may result in the New Zealand rate changing.
Income details
The client must provide Services Australia - International Services with details of all income they receive in Australia or New Zealand.
This includes any Child Support payments they get that are paid through Inland Revenue.
