Question help (Are you eligible for EECA funding?)

You may get the Community Services Card if you are:

  • 18 years old or over (or 16-17 years old in full-time tertiary study)
  • on a low to middle income (the amount depends on your family situation)
  • a New Zealand citizen or permanent resident. You should also normally live in New Zealand and intend to stay here.

You may also get the card if you have refugee status or have applied for refugee status.
