We recieved DS within 3wks and that was with xmas and NY in the middle. Medicare was a different totally we still hadn't got it when we went for his first lot of immunisations and only recieved it when we chased it up because the form hadn't been passed on from sorting out the baby bonus and FTA.
We got our bubs birth certificate within two weeks( from Births, Deaths and Marriages in Sydney) and a new medicare card took about four weeks,each state must be different,if you have been waiting more than a month a would definately check on it. Also ours came registered post,it had to be signed for,so no one else could collect it.
about 14months!!! they were very quick to take the money out of my account - then as time passed i forgot about it till someone mentioned birth certificates so i emailed & it arrived within a week - no explanation as to why it was never sent in the first place
mmm..bit of a difference there. I just checked the credit card and they charged it out on the 16 July. Will give them until tomorrow and see if anything is in the mail, otherwise will have to email them.
We got our medicare card within a couple of weeks, I was quite surprised at how quick it was.
i actually had to phone up yesterday and find out where ds was he was born 15th june & still hadnt recieved it! they said payment didnt go threw but have the bank statement from which acc the money was already taken blo0dy ridiculous! who knows when it'll rock up now!
We got DD's the week before last. So took roughly 6 weeks. I called them to enquire and they were able to tell me when it was due to be printed. Even though my money was taken out 2 days after i mailed it in.
