You usually receive a small increase on the first pension date after the starting date of the increase, then by the next pension date it increases to the full amount. This is because you get a pro-rata amount on your first pay date after the increase.
Our fortnightly payment was due Tuesday and the increase was not included. I checked MyGov and it is listed in the next fortnight. Guess we miss out on one payment.
The MyGov site will show payments made and due under View Payment History.
Why do people need this to be explained, it has always been the same you have to wait 2 weeks for the full rise to come through. And I didn't work for Centrelink
You get a pro rata payment first pension day after 20 March then full pay next pension day. In my case that will be 13 April.
I didn't get the increase. Centrelink pay my pension on Saturdays but it isn't technically due until Mondays. I'm annoyed. I received about $12. What this is I haven't a clue. A placation? I checked on Centrelink website and the full raise is to be paid next fortnight. This truly sucks.

No I did not, but my husband found out that they are two weeks behind.
Hi everyone,
The increase will not show up until your next payday. I went into my gov on the internet and then clicked on Centrelink and then clicked on payments and that showed my increase would be next payday. Try this. Hope this has been helpful.

It depends on what day you receive your pension. I received 3 days worth….I’ll get the full increase next payment.
The age pension rise should be paid to us on our next pension date and any arrears will be back date from the 20/3/23.
Yes that sound right to me. We got around the $2 increase this week. Wondered what it was for. Thanks.
The increases started on Monday the 20. March./ By today you only would have got a pro rata increase..
Hopefully it will be included in the next pension day of next Wednesday.
