FormFinder: AU Gov Forms

FormFinder is an independent app. It is not a government service and is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, any Australian government agency.

FormFinder is a directory that helps everyday Australians find the right form and understand how to complete it. It does not create, host, or change any information — for every form, it links you directly to that form's own official source.

WHERE THE INFORMATION COMES FROM
FormFinder is not itself a source of information — it is a directory. For each form, the official source is shown on that form inside the app, and links directly to the organisation responsible for it.

Most sources are official Australian government websites — federal, state, territory, and local. The main ones include myGov, Services Australia (Centrelink, Medicare and Child Support), the Australian Taxation Office, the Australian Government's business portal, the Department of Health, the Department of Home Affairs (immigration), the Australian Government Directory, each state and territory government's services portal (Service NSW, Service Victoria, the Queensland, South Australian, Western Australian, Tasmanian, Northern Territory and ACT government portals), and your local council's website.

Some forms are handled not by a government agency but by the responsible non-government body — for example a professional registration board, an industry certification body, an ombudsman or complaints service such as the Australian Financial Complaints Authority, or a support organisation such as Lifeline — and FormFinder links to that body's own official site.

The complete list of every source FormFinder links to, with a working link to each one, is published here:

Always check the official source for your situation before relying on any information in the app. Your data stays on your device, and we never sell it.
