$2000 NSW Fertility Treatment Rebate

If you live in NSW and are considering IVF treatment, you may be eligible for financial support through the Fertility Treatment Rebate-2 Program. Administered by Service NSW and NSW Health, this initiative is part of the NSW Affordable IVF Initiative, designed to make fertility treatments more accessible for low to middle-income households.

Eligible women can claim a $2,000 rebate for approved fertility treatment costs, including IVF and other Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) procedures. The new program begins on 19 February 2025, replacing the previous Fertility Treatment Rebate Program, which covered eligible expenses from 1 January 2023 to 18 February 2025.

If you’re planning fertility treatment, this rebate could help reduce costs—be sure to check your eligibility and application details through Service NSW.

What’s included in the NSW fertility rebate package?

Those who are eligible will benefit from:

1. A $2000 rebate when undergoing IVF treatment in NSW
2. An extended rebate for pre-IVF fertility testing
3. If you are a teacher, nurse or other NSW public servant, you will receive five days of paid fertility treatment leave.

The rebate can only be claimed once per individual.

Who’s eligible for the NSW fertility rebate?

To be eligible, you must be:

• a resident of NSW
• have undergone an ART treatment with an eligible provider on or after 19 February 2025

If you don’t meet these new criteria, you won’t be eligible for the NSW fertility treatment rebate. If you’ve already received the $2,000 rebate under the current program (valid until 18 February 2025), you will not be eligible for the Fertility Treatment Rebate-2 Program.
