This checklist will help you to use the aged care fee estimators on the My Aged Care website, which can give you an estimate of fees and payments of aged care, based on the information you enter.
You can print this checklist and write your estimated income and assets in the right hand column as you go through your documents.
An important note for pensioners: If you receive the one off payment of $750.00 – as part of the Government’s response to coronavirus (COVID-19) – it will not be counted as income. That means it won’t be included in income or means assessments for aged care.
