We know filling out forms can often be a little confusing. We want to ensure everything is simple and clear for you as possible, so we’ve put together a quick how to guide to help you fill out the government rebate form. Filling in the mandatory fields and questions correctly will allow us to process your rebate form as quickly as possible.
Things to keep an eye out for
Question 3 (mandatory):
Make sure you don’t miss the check box and the date on question 3. If there’s no date next to question 3, unfortunately we can’t accept the form. In this field put the start date of your cover, so you can make sure you’re claiming the highest rebate possible from the start (just make sure it’s within the current financial year). If your cover started before the previous tax year and you haven’t registered to claim the rebate from us, it’s ok – the rebate has been/will be adjusted with your tax return.
Question 12 (mandatory):
All the people listed on the policy must be eligible to claim Medicare for you to receive the rebate as a reduced premium. Please ensure you have selected the correct box.
Question 13 (mandatory):
Policy holders must nominate the income tier they believe they are entitled to, each tier has a salary threshold. For more information visit ‘What is the Government Rebate and how can I claim it?’, shows you the current financial year salary thresholds and rebate tiers.
Question 15 (mandatory):
Don’t forget to sign, date and check the declaration box at the end of the form, these are all mandatory fields and if you miss it, it could cause delays.
