This online event will inform you of the support available — specifically for New Zealand veterans living in Australia. We will also answer questions from attendees.

At the event you will hear from:

  • the Department of Veterans Affairs Australia
  • the New Zealand Ministry of Social Development (about veterans pensions and superannuation)
  • Veterans’ Affairs New Zealand (discussing services under VIP and general support)
  • NZDF’s financial support group, Force Financial Hub
  • the Royal New Zealand Returned and Services’ Association District Support Manager resident in Australia
  • Wayne Lindsay OAM (veteran advocate).

There will be two sessions on February 15:

  • Session 1 at 11:00am AEDT
  • Session 2 at 4:00pm AEDT

Both sessions are the same. You're welcome to join either session. They will run for one hour.
