## What you need to check

Full pensioners get 40% off their rates, up to $1,350 a year. Part pensioners and people on some allowances get 20% off, up to $675 a year. You must own the home and live there. You need a Queensland Pensioner Concession Card. A Queensland Veteran Gold Card can also count. Apply by phoning Council on 07 3403 8888, or at a customer centre or ward office. The state government also pays 20% of your rates, up to $200 a year. The council rebate stops if your rates are $30 or more overdue.

This is a short summary. Other rules may apply, like income or where you live. Check the full rules with the agency that runs it.
