I earn less than $500 per month. Do I qualify for Workfare Income Supplement (WIS)?

If you earn less than $500 per month, you will qualify for concessionary Workfare Income Supplement (WIS) if you belong to one of the groups and meet other WIS eligibility criteria:
• Person with Disability
• Comcare Short-to-Medium Term Assistance recipient
• Caregiver of a care recipient. This generally includes caregivers residing with care recipients who are medically certified to have permanent moderate to severe disabilities.
For employees, you will receive a flat concessionary payment, based on age:
Age in Work Year |
30 to 34 years |
35 to 44 years |
45 to 59 years |
60 years and above and all Persons with Disabilities |
Monthly concessionary Workfare payment |
$50 |
$75 |
$120 |
$130 |
Self-employed persons (SEPs) will receive two-thirds of the WIS payments received by employees after they have made the required MediSave contributions.
