Yes. It’s a clusterfuck. I applied for (online), and got an extension until January 31. Go to abrs.gov.au and click the orange panel up top.

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 -- Tom Worthington, http://www.tomw.net.au _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
