    Pensioners got a rise just 4 months ago.
    The Federal Government have confirmed the new payment rates from 20 September 2023 for recipients of the Age Pension, Disability Support Pension, and Carer Payments. Singles can expect an increase of $32.70 a fortnight and couples can expect an increase of $24.70 a fortnight.

    Plus

    The new year has brought permanent changes to the pension system that will allow older Australians to earn an extra $4000 before their government support payments are trimmed. Eligible pensioners and veterans can now earn $11,800, rather than $7800, before their payments are reduced.
