The husband can in South Australia,I think you have to be 60 and not working more  than a few hours a week anywhere in Australia

I think it's the same story in WA, but the person working can't be a recipient of the advantages that it gives, for example:  if the family car is registered in the workers name there will be no discount on the registration, wheras if it is registered in the card holders name it can be.  if that makes sense.

I think that you will find that in NSW, anybody over 60, working 20 or less hours P/W is eligible, regardless of wealth or income of himself or wife.  I have had a seniors card for many years now & have found the only realistic benefit to be the public transport.  You have to hold a pension card to receive the RTA benefits for registration or free licence.  As an example, I have found that I can hire a car through general access cheaper than I can hire with the 30% discount.  I have written to the Minister re this without even receiving the courtesy of a reply.
