How it’s calculated
We include any income or assets you or your partner have in another country. We do this when we assess your rate of Age Pension.
We use exchange rates to work out what your overseas income or assets are worth in Australia. If you have too much, it can reduce the amount of Age Pension you get.
To ask about these rates, either:
- call the Foreign income line if you’re in Australia
- call one of our International numbers if you’re outside Australia.
