My RACV comprehensive car insurance has gone up $550, to over $3,100, this year. Is it safe for me to look at a cheaper company? I’m in Melbourne.

I went on iSelect and I saw companies like Budget Direct and Coles offering comprehensive car insurance for roughly $1,500 or so. Are they worth looking at or is RACV the safest one?

I’m insured for agreed value. Should I look at that as well? My car is eight years old now. I’ll give RACV a call anyway as I don’t drive a lot.

EDIT: I drive a 2018 6 cylinder Camry XL.

Is the Federal Government going to make changes to the privatised employment services scheme? This was in the news a few years ago. Have there been any real changes? I know DES has become IEA, but I haven’t noticed a real change with that. I with an IEA provider myself.

If I get an income stream from my super do I list it on mygov from the date I apply or from the date it starts or is approved? I’m on Jobseeker and I’m 62.

I’m keeping this as a backup option in case I don’t get a job or can’t get the DSP.

I understand I’d have to list the newly created super account, for the income stream to come from, as an asset.
