“Our pension calculator makes it look easy, but the calculation behind any Age Pension eligibility check is quite complex. It is always updated with the latest Centrelink rates and calculations.

Rest assured the information you enter into the calculator is confidential and is not shared with Centrelink

You can use this calculator as many times as you like.

Feel free to enter estimates if you aren’t sure.”

When to use a pension calculator

Older Australians commonly begin to use pension eligibillity calculators as they approach retirement age. It’s a convenient method for estimating likely future pension entitlements. For people transitioning from paid work to retirement it can help provide clarity with personal finances.

Existing pensioners who might be about to experience a change in their financial circumstances are also frequent users of Age Pension calculators. Any life event or decision that may increase or decrease income or assets could affect eligibility for pension entitlements. It’s often a good idea to check the potential impact of such events before they occur, and calculators offer a simple way to assess pension eligibility.
