Check your bank account balances are up to date

Published: 14 April 2025

Keeping your income and asset information up to date will ensure you are paid the correct amount from us.

You may get a letter through your myGov inbox, or by post, asking you to update your bank account balances if you haven’t updated them for some time.

If you get a letter, you can review and update your bank account balances by:

  • selecting the Bank account balance update reminder in your Centrelink online account or Express Plus Centrelink mobile app
  • selecting the Bank account balance update link in your myGov inbox message.

It’s important to let us know about any changes to your bank account balances. You don’t have to wait for the letter, you can view and update your details at any time.

Find out more about changes to your circumstances if you get a Centrelink payment.
