I qualify for the aged pension in Australia next may, i am living in Bangkok and was told that the Labor Government changed the rules and when you apply for the aged pension YOU CAN NOT live outside Australia, sounds ridiculous to me but i am worried about it.

Many Thanks for ANY help.

¨ What if I want to live overseas?

Once Age Pension is granted, it can be paid overseas indefinitely for any absence (including living overseas permanently), subject to proportional portability and the restriction for former residents.
