VicinOz Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Hey, does anybody know if I'm entitled to a concessions card even though I'm not eligible for state benefits? I've lodged a spouse visa & am currently on a bridging visa but am unemployed at present. I'm in NSW. Cheers. Vic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scattley Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Concession cards are linked to unemployment benefits....so if you do not qualify for those you cannot get the concession. However, if you are married you are not automatically entitled to these benefits unless your partner is also unemployed. Your partner is expected to support you if you are not working, not the government. So being married you are not likely to get any government support for being out of work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
