Aged pension payments
Hi everyone. I feel a bit silly asking this question but all my 'googling' hasn't turned up a definitive answer.
When a couple receive an aged pension, is it paid in one lump sum, or in two individual payments?

Hi Leonie,
Your half of the couples pension (or part pension) is paid fortnightly into your nominated account, so yes, you get your separate payment. Even if paid into a joint account it is delivered separately ie. your half and your partners half on the same day each fortnight. No question is “silly”, we can all learn from each other :)
