Latest News About Wa Government Fuel Voucher

Here’s the latest on Western Australia’s fuel voucher program.

• A one-off Fuel Support Payment of $100 is slated to open in July 2026. It will be available to anyone holding a Western Australian driver’s licence, including learner’s permits, provisional, and extraordinary licences. Claims open through the ServiceWA app, with Digital ID login suggested, and alternative claiming options for those who can’t or don’t want to use the app [source: WA government and multiple outlets reporting the July 2026 start].[1][6][7]
• The payment is part of a broader cost-of-living relief package in the WA Budget, alongside other measures such as a Student Assistance Payment. The government framed it as direct support to Western Australian motorists, funded by the state budget surplus.[3][6]
• Coverage estimates indicate more than 2 million eligible drivers/licence holders in WA will benefit from this voucher.[4][3]
