Increase to Secondary Assistance Scheme - Clothing Allowance
The State Government has announced an increase to the SAS clothing allowance for 2024 and 2025 to provide further cost-of-living support to WA families. An automatic 'top-up' payment to everyone (who received it in 2024) will be provided in September 2024. The government will contact families direct who received the initial payment and will also initiate the extra payment, should you have already made a claim this year.
