Get ready to claim the WA Student Assistance Payment.

The WA Student Assistance Payment helps parents and carers with the cost-of-living pressures associated with sending their children to school.

The second round of the payment is now open, with claim submissions available through the ServiceWA app.

All Western Australian school students in Kindergarten to Year 12, with a valid WA student number (WASN), are eligible for this cost-of-living payment.

The ServiceWA app is the fastest and most convenient way to claim the payment.   

If you are unable to claim through the ServiceWA app you can submit a claim online or by posting in a claim form. Claims made through these methods may take longer to process.

For app support, head to WA.gov.au/servicewaapp

All claims must be received by Friday 4 July 2025.

For more information on the payment, including eligibility criteria, visit education.wa.edu.au/wasap
