A myGov Account allows you to have access to Government Online Services with a single login / password setup.  Once you create a myGov account for yourself, you can then link various Government agencies and be able to access these, all from the one login.  Some of the agencies that you can link include: Centrelink / Medicare / ATO / My Health Record / NDIS / Veterans Affairs….and more.

 

With a myGov account, you have a single Inbox , where all your linked agencies will send you letters, statements etc.
