Over the past few years, we’ve heard that people with lived experience have had conflicting advice over whether they have to declare their participation income to Centrelink and/or the Australian Tax Office (ATO), and whether this would affect any income they currently get from Centrelink, or any services they access, or might need to access in the future.

👋 𝗪𝗵𝗼 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲

We are a group of people from not for profit (NFP) and government organisations who are working together to advocate for some clarity from Centrelink and the ATO about whether or not participants need to declare income from paid participation. We are called the Consumer Participation Practice Network and are based in Victoria, Australia.
