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.
