Social Security and Centrelink can be frustrating and confusing to deal with, but for people experiencing hardship, getting their entitlements right can make a huge difference to their lives. It can also help avoid making their situation worse through overpayments and debts.
In this session recording , Dermott Williams, Community Lawyer with Social Security Rights Victoria’s Integrated Services Project, have given an overview of Centrelink, the circumstances where payments may be available, and common issues and challenges people face in dealing with the social security system.
The presenters have also addressed the avenues people can pursue when they are not happy with a Centrelink decision – including appeals – and what help is available for clients and community workers (i.e. when and what SSRV can help with).
