Forgot my username and password

You must reset your password every 3 months.

Password policy

Passwords expire every 3 months as required by the Department of Health and Aged Care's IT security policy. 

Your password must:

  • be minimum 14 characters and maximum 127 characters 
  • be different to you last 8 passwords
  • not contain your account name or more than two consecutive characters of your full name 

Your password may contain:

  • English uppercase characters (A-Z) 
  • English lowercase characters (a-z) 
  • Numbers (0 through 9) 
  • Most non-alphabetic characters, including spaces e.g. ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) < > ? , ; . “ / \

You password can be changed maximum once per day. 
 
As a suggestion, use a passphrase. Passphrases are made up of 4 or more random words making them longer than a traditional password. This makes them harder to guess but easy to remember. Passphrases should be long, unpredictable and unique.
