The application must be assessed and referred by social workers or similarly qualified professional staff from appropriately accredited organisations. Residency in Victoria for a period of 12 months or more is required.
If the application is approved, payment by EFT/BPAY is preferred and will be made directly to the nominated payee and a letter of confirmation of payment will be emailed to the referring agency. You can check the status of your application on the application portal. Please do not email inquiries asking if your application has been successful.
NOTE: For security and privacy reasons please do not send applications or documents via email.
