*I authorise Merri-bek City Council to use eServices to perform a Centrelink enquiry of my Centrelink or Veterans Affairs and concession card status to determine if I qualify for a payment plan.

Please note: Council cannot deduct payments from Centrelink.

Please note that for total outstanding amount:

• Below $100, the minimum is $20 per fortnight (for Concession Card holders) and $30 per fortnight (Non Concession Card holders)
• Between $100-$200, the minimum is $30 per fortnight (for concession) and $40 per fortnight (Non Concession Card holders)
• Between $201-$300, the minimum is $40 per fortnight (for concession) and $50 per fortnight (Non Concession Card holders)
• Between $301-$400, the minimum is $45 per fortnight (for concession) and $60 per fortnight (Non Concession Card holders)
• Above $400 submit the payment plan application without the 'amount' and council will set up a minimum payment as per Council Policy
