    Scale your practice, not your admin.

    CennoAssist is Australia's go-to behind-the-scenes Centrelink liaison service. We integrate seamlessly with your paraplanning team to manage end-to-end Centrelink and aged care reporting, so your advisers can focus on strategy, not sitting on hold.

    The Centrelink Challenge

    Whether you're helping a parent through their own claim or managing updates for your clients, the same friction slows everyone down. Long waits, shifting rules and paperwork that never quite ends.

    Hours on Hold

    Average wait times exceed 40 minutes. That's time lost from your day, whether you're chasing a client's update or a parent's claim.

    Inconsistent Information

    Different agents give different answers. It's frustrating, and it leads to costly mistakes for families and practices alike.

    Complex Legislation

    Means testing, income reporting, asset thresholds, it's a maze of constantly changing rules.

    Worry and Uncertainty

    Families worry about delays and underpayments, and for advisers that stress reflects on the advisory relationship.

    About CennoAssist

    Built on Centrelink Experience

    Built by a former Centrelink Team Lead with 5+ years of internal experience navigating means testing, Age Pension rules, and aged care assessments.

    I know how to get things done quickly and correctly. I understand the means testing rules inside and out, the reporting requirements, and the most efficient ways to communicate changes.

    CennoAssist was born from a simple observation: financial advisers, accountants, aged care specialists, and family offices should not lose hours navigating government bureaucracy when they could be serving clients and growing their practice.

    Let CennoAssist handle Centrelink while your practice focuses on its clients.
