Welfare to Work Update
People with MS and carers who are in receipt of Centrelink or family tax benefit need good information in their dealings with Centrelink, and this information is not easy to find.
The National Welfare Rights Network (NWRN) has compiled a comprehensive set of fact sheets dealing with all aspects of Centrelink benefits and processes, including appeals.
The NWRN is a network of services throughout Australia that provides free and independent information, advice and representation to individuals about Social Security law and its administration through Centrelink.
The NWRN consists of both specialist community legal centres and services as well as individual advocates who are based in generalist community legal centres. NWRN member organisations are located in each capital city in Australia and in four regional centres. They are completely independent of Centrelink and all government departments.
