Hiya, wil be travelling a few weeks here and there for long time I hope.
How does cenrtrelinks rent assistance work for travellers (age pension)
1)do we have to get caravan park managers to sign a form? Then submit it.
2) what do we do with online booking sites like nat parks. There's no one to sign, will Centrelink accept a copy of online receipt?
3) is it best to get a site on a pension day and have it for a week two. Just that how is it calculated by payday for week or two or if you go say midweek for a week you would still get full rent assistance. Just don't want them to split it to 3 days one week 4 days the next. Wouldn't get anything them.
4) do you all got and get a heap of forms of Centrelink every few month
I'm southern nsw, and cant do another winter so going north for 5 months, thence cruise around Victoria for 5 months.
Cheers in advance.
Plan is to stay at cheap forests etc for week and save money to go to van parks. Very expensive ooop nth.

I think you will have to contact centrelink first as you must inform Centrelink/Services Australia about your travel plans to ensure your payments are adjusted correctly.
