  2. The name that is registered with the school, date of birth, school name, and year level of each student you are claiming for.
  3. The bank account details where the payment will be deposited.

Check all claim information carefully before submitting. Once submitted, claims cannot be altered and will be declined if incorrect information is provided. If a claim is declined a new claim will need to be submitted.
