You will also need to bring the appropriate valid benefit book or award notification letter for concession applications.
If you are applying for a concession card as a full-time student you will need to provide a letter from your educational establishment. This letter should confirm that you are in full-time education.
As a concession cardholder you must bring proof of circumstances each time you use your card. This is to confirm that your benefits status is still valid while you hold your concessionary entitlement.
