How to apply:
- When your next rego renewal notice arrives, jump on the VicRoads website to apply for the discount. You will need your VRQA registration number, vehicle registration number, and driver licence number. VicRoads will check your details with your employer, so make sure your employer supports your application before you apply.
You can’t apply for this discount if:

Note: You may have another vehicle registered in your name with another concession type. (e.g. Health Care Card).
Coming here to say the same thing… well.. except the second line. Have this argument with a relative all the time. He speaks of his low paid apprenticeship but i rebut with having to work somewhere else unrelated to my future career whilst accruing a hecs debt.
