Report income in your language
You can report your income in English, Arabic, Vietnamese, Persian (Farsi) and Chinese Simplified using the app. This option isn’t available in your Centrelink online account.
To report in one of the available languages, you need to change the language setting on your device before you report. You’ll only need to do this once.
For Apple iOS devices, follow these steps:
- open Settings
- select General
- select Language and Region
- select iPhone Language
- Search for the language you want to change or select it from the list
- Select Change to (language you chose)
- exit Settings to go back to your home screen.
For Android devices, follow these steps:
- open Settings
- select General management
- select Language
- select Add a language
- select the language from the list you want to change to
- exit Settings to go back to your home screen.
Some steps may be different depending on the type of Android device you have.
Open the Express Plus Centrelink mobile app and sign in with your myGov PIN. The Report employment income service will show in the language you set on your device. The rest of the app will show in English. Use our guide to help you report your employment income using the app.
