Our Home Resecure Program

Eligibility applies:

  • If your home is a RENTAL PROPERTY and it has been broken into, it is the responsibility of the homeowner to resecure the property. Please contact the homeowner or real estate to arrange any required repairs. Only owner occupied properties are eligible to apply.
  • The incident must have been reported to the Police with PROMIS number obtained.
  • The funding cannot be applied to insurance excess.
  • If you experience a home break-in and vehicle damage in the same incident, you are only able to claim for either the home OR vehicle, not both.
  • This is a crisis response program and reimbursements must be submitted within fourteen days of the incident.

If you have already, or would like to, arrange the repairs yourself, ensure you retain a copy of your tax invoice and a receipt from an ABN registered repairer. Victims of Crime NT will reimburse you according to the above requirements.

Alternatively, Victims of Crime NT can organise a referral to an ABN registered business that can invoice us directly for up to the eligible amount.

Please submit an enquiry below and we will be in contact during business hours to discuss eligibility.
