Many Australians receiving Centrelink payments or NDIS support believe they can’t claim TPD insurance. That’s not true – and it could cost you a life-changing payout.
Yes, You Can Claim TPD While Receiving Support
Centrelink and the NDIS are social safety nets. TPD insurance is a private benefit you’ve paid for through your super fund. One doesn’t cancel out the other.
What You Need to Know
* TPD payouts are usually tax-free if paid through super
* Receiving Centrelink or NDIS doesn’t disqualify you from TPD
* You must still meet your policy’s definition of total and permanent disability
