Expert ADF Financial Advice For Perth
Perth’s Defence community is spread across multiple bases, such as HMAS Stirling at Garden Island, the Royal Australian Navy’s primary West Coast base, and RAAF Base Pearce in Bullsbrook, Western Australia’s main Air Force base and a major pilot-training location. Army members and reservists also serve at Campbell Barracks in Swanbourne and Irwin Barracks in Karrakatta. With postings spread across Perth, our specialist financial advice helps connect military superannuation, allowance and housing so you can make those long-term family plans.
National Service Financial operates from the Mariners Commercial Building in Tuggerah on the NSW Central Coast. Perth clients can begin with a free financial discovery consultation to confirm whether it can be held remotely, at the Tuggerah office, or through another arrangement. Locally, Veteran Central at ANZAC House is part of DVA’s Veterans and Families Hubs network, helping to connect local serving members, veterans and families. Together, these options provide Perth residents with specialist financial advice and a verified local veteran network.
Western Australian members can face financial choices that differ from those on the east coast. A new posting may mean moving between Perth, Rockingham and regional bases, while a partner may balance family responsibilities with fly-in, fly-out work. Housing costs, mortgage commitments and Defence Home Ownership Assistance Scheme support can also change the picture. By providing remote DVA financial advice to Western Australian defence members, we consider everything from compensation and military super to household cash flow and your future goals so that you can understand the available options.

Supporting Perth's Military Community
Perth’s military network includes submariners and Navy support personnel at Garden Island, trainee pilots at Pearce, Army reservists at Irwin Barracks and families moving between metropolitan and regional postings. These establishments stretch from Swanbourne and Karrakatta to Bullsbrook and Rockingham, so commuting, schooling and partner employment may all shift with a posting. Local support includes Veteran Central at ANZAC House, RSL WA sub-branches and the Western Australia Defence Member and Family Support Office. These services operate independently of National Service Financial but may provide additional assistance during postings or life transitions.
HMAS Stirling and Fleet Base West
HMAS Stirling was formally commissioned in July 1978 and forms part of the Fleet Base West, situated off the Indian Ocean. Its primary purpose is to provide operational and logistics support to Navy ships, submarines and aircraft in Western Australia.
RAAF Base Pearce
RAAF Base Pearce sits about 35 kilometres north of Perth. It remains one of Australia’s busiest aircraft bases, with pilot training as its primary role.
Irwin Barracks and Family Support
Irwin Barracks has been home to the 13th Brigade since 1948 and primarily supports Army Reserve activities. Located in Rockingham, the Western Australia Area Office supports families posted to Irwin Barracks, Campbell Barracks, RAAF Base Pearce and HMAS Stirling, as well as other Western Australian services.
