That ICPA Australia lobbies Services Australia to assess the payment times for the AIC applications for Year 12 students, to coincide with the beginning of Term Four so parents are able to budget for the balance owing at the completion of the senior school year.
Queensland families appreciate the valuable subsidy that Services Australia provides in the way of AIC and thank ICPA Australia for continuing to lobby for a much-needed payment increase. Receiving the final AIC payment earlier for Year 12 students would allow Parents/Caregivers to have their accounts finalized prior to Week Three Term Four when a lot of non ATAR school leavers are graduating and schools require accounts to be settled, it would alleviate overpayments and assist with more accurate budgeting for families.
