Centrelink Age Pension 2026 Update | Indexation & Deeming Explained Simply

Welcome my YouTube channel Pension Pathfinders AU, where we help Australians clearly understand Centrelink and Age Pension rules without confusion or fear.

In this video, we explain the Centrelink Age Pension 2026 update, focusing on indexation and deeming, and how these rules really affect your pension payment. Many older Australians are surprised when their Age Pension changes even though their situation hasn’t. This video explains why that happens and what you need to know moving into 2026.

You’ll learn how Age Pension indexation works, why payments are adjusted in March and September, and how cost of living, inflation, and wage growth influence pension increases. We also break down deeming in simple language, explaining how Centrelink calculates income from your savings, bank accounts, shares, and superannuation, even if your actual earnings are low.

This video is especially important if you are already receiving the Age Pension, planning to apply soon, or helping a parent or family member understand Centrelink letters and payment changes. We also explain how indexation affects income test and assets test thresholds, why some pensioners see increases while others don’t, and how deeming can impact your final pension amount.

By watching this video, you will better understand why your Age Pension goes up or down, how Centrelink assessments work, and what smart pensioners should be aware of throughout 2026. Our goal at Pension Pathfinders AU is to give you clarity, confidence, and practical knowledge so you can make informed decisions about your retirement income.
