Application Access Information (landing page – accessible from the Monday but links not active)

  • Please ensure you are registered with Rural Aid and all required paperwork is ready before starting the application, as the page may time out and result in an error message when left idle. See the Rural Aid email for details of required paperwork.
  • When applications for each state open, the relevant link below will become active and allow access to the application form.
  • Once the allocated number of applications for that state have been received the link will close and a message will appear advising that applications are now closed for that state. If the application link closes while an application is being completed, the application will still be accepted.
  • If there are issues uploading documents, it is recommended that applicants continue to complete and submit the form and then email the supporting documents to disasterassistance@ruralaid.org.au
  • If you miss out on this round, please note that we are aiming to reopen for a new round of application later this year or early next year.  This will depend on the number of applications received this round and the funding available to support this round of applications. 

Please note that documents must be submitted within 24 hours of Rural Aid receiving an application, otherwise the application may be voided.  

  • Once your application has been successfully submitted, you will receive a confirmation email.  
  • Applications submitted that do not match the correct state for that state allocation will not be accepted.
