Settlement Guide: 5 new facts on immunisation for families

The Australian Government has extended the immunisation requirements for Child Care Benefit (CCB), Child Care Rebate (CCR) and the Family Tax Benefit (FTB) Part A end of year supplement. Families with children who are not immunised and do not have an approved exemption will not receive family assistance payments. However, families have access to free catch-up vaccines until 31 December 2017.
