How does Centrelink know if you gift money?

Is a 20000 gift taxable?
The $20,000 gifts are called taxable gifts because they exceed the $15,000 annual exclusion. But you won’t actually owe any gift tax unless you’ve exhausted your lifetime exemption amount.

Gift Tax Limit: Annual. The annual gift tax exclusion is $15,000 for the 2021 tax year. (It was the same for the 2020 tax year.) This is the amount of money that you can give as a gift to one person, in any given year, without having to pay any gift tax.
What happens if you gift £500, 000 to someone?
If you gift larger sums then you do need to be careful. If you gift £500,000 to your children to your loved ones – “real live people”, no problem, the £500,000 gifted is treated exactly the same way as above, the 7 year rule etc. It is potentially an exempt transfer and if you survive for seven years it is outside of the estate.
Can you gift more than £325, 000 without inheritance tax?
You may be able to gift more without the amount being subject to inheritance tax, but if you die within seven years of giving the gift and you’ve used your full £325,000 nil rate band allowance elsewhere, tax could come into play. To guarantee the money gifted is tax-free, the allowances above apply.
