What is the robodebt payout deadline and who must register?

The deadline is 6 March. If Services Australia or Gordon Legal contacted you about the class action, you should register through the provided portal. Registration confirms your identity, contact details, and bank information. Missing the cutoff may exclude you from the A$475 million settlement distribution.

How do I confirm I am eligible for Centrelink robodebt compensation?

Check myGov for messages from Services Australia and emails from Gordon Legal. If you received a Robodebt notice or repaid money related to income compliance, you may be in the class. Follow the official link to verify your details. When unsure, contact Gordon Legal directly using official channels.

Will I still get paid if I miss the March 6 cutoff?

If you do not register by 6 March, you may miss out on any payment under the settlement scheme. The deadline is stated as a hard cutoff. Late registrations are unlikely to be accepted, so complete your form and bank details now and keep your confirmation reference safe.

When will payments be made, and how much will I receive?

Payments depend on Federal Court approval, expected mid‑2026, and administrative processing afterward. Amounts vary by individual records and the settlement framework. Ensure your registration and bank details are correct to avoid delays. Watch official updates from Gordon Legal and Services Australia via myGov for specific timelines.
