Registration for entitlement to grants or benefits
9 Registration for entitlement to grants or benefits
On or after the commencement of this section, you may apply for registration for entitlement to a specific grant or benefit. The application must, subject to subsection (1A), be in the approved form and include such information as is specified in the regulations.
Telephone signature not required
If the application is given by telephone, it need not contain a telephone signature (within the meaning of section 995‑1 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997).
The definition of approved form in section 5 of this Act would otherwise have the effect that the requirement for a telephone signature, in subsection 388‑75(4) in Schedule 1 to the Taxation Administration Act 1953, would apply.
General requirements
If you apply in accordance with subsection (1), the Commissioner must register you for entitlement to the grant or benefit if the Commissioner is satisfied that:
you satisfy any specific requirements set out in this section in relation to registration for that grant or benefit; and
you satisfy any prescribed conditions; and
if paragraph (d) does not apply—you have an ABN; and
if you do not have an ABN and are not entitled to have an ABN—you have provided evidence, of a kind determined by the Commissioner, of your identity and address.

the Commissioner has not been informed by a Department, agency or authority of the Commonwealth, a State or a Territory that is responsible for the administration of any such legislation that you do not comply with the legislation; and
satisfy any prescribed conditions.
