What is a Centrelink urgent payment?
An urgent payment is an early delivery of a recipient’s entitlement, which is made because the recipient is in severe financial hardship as a result of exceptional and unforeseen circumstances. Urgent payments result in a lower subsequent payment on the recipient’s usual payment delivery day (1.1. D. 55).
