We thought it might be useful to provide you with some answers to the most commonly asked questions –
Who can apply?If you are between the ages of 15 – 25, have a statutory care experience, and you are a clubCREATE member, you can apply for this grant. If you are not a clubCREATE member, you can easily and quickly join by simply filling out the online form found here – https://clubcreate.create.org.au/NMJoin.aspx If you are unsure of your clubCREATE membership number, please contact your local office and one of our friendly staff members will be able to help you. They can be reached by calling 1800 655 105.
What if I have received a CREATE Your Future Grant before in previous years?You are able to apply again.
How do I complete a CREATE Your Future Grant Application?There are a few ways you can do this, the easiest option would be by clicking this link and filling out the Application Form online – Other options would be printing the Application Form, filling it in and either posting or emailing it to us, for more information on this please go to page 8 of this application form.
What if I want a different laptop and not the preselected one?The laptops have been pre-selected and CREATE is unable to approve any requests for alternative laptops/ devices.
| Can I apply for the driving lessons/ test grant if I don’t yet have my learners permit?No. You must hold a valid learners permit to apply for the driving lessons/ test grant.
What makes a CREATE Your Future Grant Scheme Application great?The best applications we receive are the ones that are completed in full. If an application is lodged that does not have all the information we need, it will be deemed ineligible (which means that we can’t assess your application).
Can someone help me complete my Application?We encourage all young people to complete the CREATE Your Future Application Form on their own however, you can ask for assistance from your carer, case worker, friend etc. if you require.
You will be sent a letter soon after the closing date advising you if your application has been successful or not. CREATE receives heaps of applications and unfortunately we do not have the funds to support each application. We do realise that it is disappointing if you miss out and we appreciate your understanding if you are not successful.
