11.1.13 Reviews & Appeals under Income Management

Reviews & appeals

A person who does not agree with a decision made under the SS(Admin)Act about income management arrangements for them, under any income management measure, can generally seek review of that decision. The person will have access to the full range of review and appeal rights, including review by AROs and the SSAT.

Note: This applies to decisions made under the Commonwealth social security law. Certain decisions made in relation to income management under state law cannot be reviewed in this manner.

For the specific avenues of review and/or appeal under each measure, see the following SS Guide sections:

For information on review of exemptions see 11.1.14.10.
