Individuals can claim:
- once a quarter
- up to $750 for the financial year
- up to one year after the financial year ends (the rebate owing will accrue)
Business Toll Accounts are ineligible, except sole traders in some circumstances – click here to learn about sole trader toll relief!

Eligibility
To claim, you need to:
- be a NSW resident
