Extra support with costs

Extra support with costs

Children and young people who get Child Disability Payment can also get extra support.

This includes a wide range of related benefits and services to help with the cost of:

• care
• housing
• transport
• travel

These can be for the child or young person, their parent, guardian or carer.

The rate of the care and mobility components in their Child Disability Payment will have an effect on what you can apply for.
