Use myGov Sign in details

You’ll set up a username, password and a 2 factor authentication option when you create your myGov account. These are your myGov sign in details.

Your 2 factor authentication option is an extra layer of security to help keep your myGov account safe.

Follow these steps to sign in:

1.   Enter your username and password.

      Your username may be any of these:

• your unique 8 digit myGov username, emailed to you when you created your account
• the email address registered to your myGov account
• your mobile phone number, if you have it set up as a username.

2.   Enter your 2 factor authentication option

      Your 2 factor authentication option will be one of these:

• a code sent by SMS
• a code from the myGov Code Generator app
• secret questions and answers.
