The former Labor leader is expected to be grilled over a slush fund operated by her former boyfriend Bruce Wilson when he was an official with the Australian Workers' Union in the early 1990s.
Ms Gillard was a lawyer with the firm Slater and Gordon at the time and did work advising the union, including advising on the setting up of the fund.
Witnesses at the commission have testified Mr Wilson gave Ms Gillard money from the slush fund to pay for renovations to her house.
Ms Gillard has repeatedly denied the claims.
