If you already get a Services Australia payment, you need to tell them when you start your apprenticeship or traineeship.
If there are any changes to your circumstances, you need to tell Services Australia within 14 days. This is to make sure you’re getting the right payment and amount.
You may be able to get an Australian Apprenticeship Support Loan to help pay for everyday living expenses while you do your apprenticeship.
Find out about Australian Apprenticeship Support Loans on the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations website.
If you need to travel for your apprenticeship you may get the Living Away from Home Allowance.

If you are doing an apprenticeship in a priority occupation, you may be eligible for financial support.
