Frequently asked questions
What data is used to calculate a provider’s 2025 International TPS Levy?
The TPS uses provider data and student enrolment data in PRISMS to calculate the 2025 International TPS Levy. Specifically, the TPS uses:
- international enrolment data from the 2024 calendar year (from PRISMS)
- domestic enrolment data and international income collected through RFI from non-exempt providers.
I didn’t receive any notice. Who was my Levy sent to/how do I update contact details?
Contact information is drawn from PRISMS. The TPS is unable to manage or update contact information on behalf of a provider.
For all updates to PEO/CEO contact information, please lodge the changes with your relevant sector regulator. If you are unsure of your regulator, please visit the CRICOS contacts page.
For all other contact changes including e-business contacts, please refer to the PRISMS Provider User Guide. Management of this contact information is the responsibility of each provider.
Updates made to contact details mid-way through the Levy collection will not be reflected during this collection. During this time, please monitor existing mailboxes for correspondence.
