Centrelink Aged Care Forms

Services Australia (Centrelink) and Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA) use a number of forms to collect information from people that are requesting access to Commonwealth subsidised aged care options.

The information collected is used to decide the categories of charges and to calculate the amount of fees that will be charged to receive subsidised aged care services.

• SA456 Home Care Package - Cost of Care
• SA457 Residential Aged Care - Cost of Care
• SA485 Residential Aged Care - Property Details

When to use the SA485 Form.

The SA485 form is used when a person:

• is to be admitted to a Commonwealth subsidised residential care (aged care nursing home)
• is receiving a means tested income support payment (see types of income support payments below)
• owns or part-owns a family home (including a Retirement Village unit)

Need Help to Submit the Centrelink or DVA Aged Care Forms? Over the years, we have completed many SS313, SA456, SA457 & SA485 forms for our family clients.

You need to get the information specified correctly if you do not want to pay incorrect or excessive aged care fees and charges.
