Subdivision A - Introduction  

SECTION 10A   SIMPLIFIED OUTLINE OF THIS DIVISION  


A person who owes a debt to the Commonwealth under this Part may make voluntary ABSTUDY SSL repayments.

The person is required to make repayments once the person ' s income exceeds the minimum repayment income under the Higher Education Support Act 2003 and the person has finished repaying any debt under that Act and certain other income-contingent loan schemes.

The amount of the repayments is based on the person ' s income.

The Commissioner makes assessments of repayment amounts, which are collected in the same way as amounts of income tax.
