DHOAS fact sheet

DHOAS fact sheets are available to ADF units for use at information sessions as an overview of the Scheme. If you are giving a presentation about DHOAS, you may wish to hand out the DHOAS Fact Sheet and Your Obligations When Accessing DHOAS to members for their reference.

The information is comprehensive and reflects the main details in this website, although it does not include every possible variable (such as breaks in service, eligible partners, lateral recruits and medical discharge).

Members should still be encouraged to refer to the website for full details, and to contact DHOAS to discuss their individual circumstances.

Please note: The fact sheet includes subsidy amounts, which are subject to change each month based on fluctuations in the median interest rate.

You should print out a current version of the fact sheet each time you hold an information session, to ensure it includes up-to-date details.

Home Loan Providers visits to bases

As part of their presentation to members, ADF bases can invite a local representative from each of the three Home Loan Providers to speak with members about DHOAS home loan products.

The Home Loan Providers are: the Australian Military Bank, Defence Bank Limited and National Australia Bank.

It is a requirement that each Home Loan Provider be invited if you wish them to participate. However, it is not a requirement that all three of the providers are represented at the event.
