Australian company directors have until 30 November to register with MyGovId. The ABC reported that about a million had not yet done so and each risks a fine of $13,000. The registration requires providing multiple forms of identification, with matching names. This may prove impossible by following the instructions issued. I suggest the Australian Government needs to extend the deadline and clarify how IDs are matched, to avoid ending up in a Robodebt II situation.

As an example, the instructions say to enter the name on your Medicare card, but my card has the wrong name on it: not just the physical card, but the facsimile shown in the Medicare system. This weeks after I phone Medicare, and was assured the name had been changed. https://blog.tomw.net.au/2022/11/mygovid-is-robodebt-ii.html
