Your payments can be income managed if your local child protection authority refers you.
This is because the case worker believes Income Management can help you and your family.
If you do not agree with their decision you need to contact them.
You’ll be income managed for 3 to 12 months. After that, a case worker from your local child protection authority will review your progress. Depending on the result, Income Management may continue.
What happens to your money
- 70% of your payments, and
- 100% of any advance and lump sum payments
The rest of your payments will be paid as usual.
