Age Pension payment dates 2026.
A readable view of the 13 four-weekly dates in Services Australia’s published international pension calendar.
The table separates the date Services Australia issues the payment from the expected direct-deposit and cheque dates. It is the international calendar in Australian Pension News 50, not a personalised domestic payment schedule.

Limitations
Services Australia says direct deposits are generally available within 2 to 6 days after issue, and a public holiday in the recipient’s country may delay a payment. Cheque delivery may also be later. This page preserves the published dates but does not estimate bank processing times.
