Questions about accessing information
How can I check the progress of my application / assessment in My Aged Care?
You can check the progress of your My Aged Care application or assessment by logging into your My Aged Care Online Account using myGov. You can also call My Aged Care on 1800 200 422.
What is an Aged Care ID and what do I do with it?
When you register with My Aged Care for the first time, you are given an Aged Care ID. This is an important number to have to hand whenever you interact with My Aged Care, as it can be used to help prove your identity. This includes when you sign into your My Aged Care Online Account for the first time.
Your Aged Care ID begins with the letters AC, followed by 8 digits. For example, AC12345678. If you misplace it, you can find it by logging in to your Online Account. It appears right under your name on the homepage of your Online Account.
How do I log in to my Online Account?
If you want to log in to see your My Aged Care Online Account, you will need to link My Aged Care to your myGov account.
I don’t have a myGov account. Do I need one?
If you want to log in to view your My Aged Care Online Account, you will need a myGov account. If you haven't used myGov before, you can create a myGov account online or at a Services Australia Service Centre, Agents or Access Points.
