My money

Information about dealing with debts, bankruptcy, dealing with a dispute about money, Centrelink and NDIS.

A debt is money you owe to someone. The debtor is the person who owes money, and the creditor is the person who is owed money.
If you have a dispute about a debt, you should try to resolve your dispute with the other party through mediation before going to court.

If you have a Centrelink or social security problem, you can ask for an internal review of the decision and appeal to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.

If you have a disability, you can find out if you are eligible for the National Disability Insurance Scheme.
