2024–25 Repayment Thresholds

Repayments are compulsory once your income exceeds the minimum threshold. You pay a percentage of your whole income, not just the amount above the threshold.

Your HECS debt is indexed each year on 1 June by CPI. This calculator does not include indexation — your actual payoff date may vary.
