Improving Age Pension
Turning 67 is a significant milestone. After a lifetime of work, you can now sit back and relax – but not before tangling with Centrelink.
At a recent workshop, hosted by Services Australia, representatives from National Seniors Australia (NSA) and Council of the Ageing (COTA), joined with Services Australia staff to discuss how it could improve the processes involved with applying for and maintaining the Age Pension.
The key mantra for the day was “make it simpler”.
While policy changes were not on the table, there was a commitment made to improving the way older people interact with Services Australia and Centrelink to make the journey easier.
