Weekly letter from PepA plain-English weekly letter for older Australians: what deeming takes from your fortnightly pension, and what that Centrelink letter is really asking.
Where the presumed interest comes from, and why your bank never paid it.
We find the printed date and tell you what is actually being asked.
Cards, supplements and concessions exist only if you ask for them yourself.
No smoke: the full guide, the exact steps, the fix — every week.
Read the full issue →Your term deposit paid one thing; Centrelink counts another. We show where the presumed rate lands on your fortnightly payment, and which line of the letter to check first.
You're not paying for 'content' (that's everywhere and half-wrong). You're paying for the tested way, the exact steps, every week — and for a real answer when you get stuck.

“I had the term deposit statement on one side and the Centrelink letter on the other, and never knew deeming was why my fortnightly payment dropped. Now I see it coming and check the dates myself.”

“The envelope used to sit by the phone for days. Now the weekly letter tells me what the printed date means, and I opened mine before the deadline instead of after my pension was cut.”
