If you have any queries about Schoolkids Bonus and/or your payment, you first need to check your eligibility and, if necessary, update your child’s education details. For example, you need to tell us if your child is starting primary or secondary study, or if they’re finishing secondary study. The quickest and easiest way to check and update your details is by logging on to your Centrelink online account. Select “Family Assistance” from the menu, then “View/Update child education details”. If the update to your details means you are now eligible for a payment, you will receive it automatically within 2 working days.
