Low Income Health Care Card for Australian Students

Once you have finished school you are no longer a student and you may be eligible for a Low Income Health Care Card.

This card gives access to a range of benefits, not only on some health care items but also on a range of other goods and services if you are on a low income.  In particular, some TAFE and other short courses may offer discounts for cardholders.

You may also be eligible for public transport concessions (note that if you are studying interstate you are not eligible for public transport concessions in Victoria).

Eligibility for a Low Income Health Care Card is based on YOUR income over the previous 8 weeks before applying.  As long as your income is less than $6,152 over that period (or $769 per week) you are eligible to apply.  You will be eligible to keep the Low Income Health Care Card as long as your income does not exceed $7,690 (or $961 per week) in any 8 week period prior to renewing your card.

It is highly recommended that all eligible graduating Year 12 students consider applying for this card once the exams are over.
