The Australian Government has confirmed a one-time $497 Centrelink relief payment for eligible recipients to combat rising living costs. This non-taxable payment will be automatically deposited between April 15 and April 30, 2025. Pensioners, carers, and jobseekers are among those eligible. No application is needed—just ensure your bank and contact details are updated on myGov before April 10, 2025 to avoid delays.
