    It took us 4 days for the baby bonus. But almost 2 months for them to sort out the rest of the payments! (all of which we get $22 a week.... woo hooo!!! lol)

    PM did you ever get it sorted why your payments were so low?

    I did ring screaming and yelling from day 30 onwards but they would just lie and say "its happening tomorrow". I had to go back to work early just to bring in some money and my baby was only 10 weeks old. This time we are well and truly prepared but still I dont want them to take there time. I was thinking cos my baby should be born around the same time the daycare rebate is coming, it would slow down the process cos they will be too busy. Im coming up for the excuses for them this time just to prepare myself.
