What is changing?
R&D Tax Incentive Portal is transitioning to the Australian Government
Digital Identity System to verify users.
What is Digital Identity?
Digital Identity provides Australian people and businesses with a single, secure way to access government and other services online. Once you’ve set up your Digital Identity, you can reuse it across a range of services, saving you from having to prove who you are over and over.
The Digital Identity System is protected by strict security protocols to keep your information secure and stop it from being collected, profiled, used or sold for other purposes.
Other government services will be transitioning to Digital Identity over the coming months.
Learn more about your Digital Identity.
What this means for you
This transition provides additional privacy and security assurances for you. Digital identity is a safe, secure, convenient way to prove who you are online.
As part of this transition, you will notice some changes to the login process when accessing R&D Tax Incentive Portal with your Digital Identity.
From 29 June 2022, the login button will display
‘Continue with Digital Identity’, replacing the current ‘Login with myGovID’ button. When you select ‘Continue with Digital Identity’ you’ll be given the option to select myGovID as your Digital Identity and asked to provide consent to share your information.
When you select
‘Continue with Digital Identity’ you’ll be given the option to select myGovID as your Digital Identity and asked to provide consent to share your information. During this process, we’ll inform you what information will be shared to access R&D Tax Incentive Portal. Usually this is limited to your name, date of birth and contact details.
You will also need to be authorised to represent your organisation for R&D Tax Incentive Portal via Relationship Authorisation Manager (RAM). For information and support with RAM, please visit the
Relationship Authorisation Manager website.
Once you select myGovID as your Digital Identity, the steps to log in will be the same. For information about myGovID, and for help with set up, please visit the
myGovID website.
