Concessions may be available to individuals and families who
receive income support payments from the Commonwealth Government
and who have an appropriate Commonwealth concession card. The
concession or rebate which you can apply for, and the eligibility
requirements, depends upon which state you live in.
Eligible cards include the Pensioner Concession Card, Health
Care Card, or an appropriate Department of Veterans Affairs Gold
Card. Please note that the account or bill of the person obtaining
the concession must be in the name of the primary concession card
holder.
Each State Government has different guidelines about the
eligibility for energy related concession or rebates.
We will provide you with information on concessions, rebates, or
grants upon request by you.
We will automatically apply any concessions or rebates that you
may be eligible for providing you have supplied us the appropriate
details of your eligibility for the Concession or rebate and that
you have agreed to share that information with the Centrelink and
the relevant State or Federal government agency.
Some concessions require the applicant to provide a completed
form from a Doctor. If you are unsure if you are eligible for a
concession please call us on 13-DODO (13 36 36).
