Are there rules for centrelink employee's regarding checking the files of family members?
My sisters SIL works for centrelink. The SIL seems to not like my sister, or our whole family & has always made degrading comments about us, but we don't actually know them. I'd say I've met her twice, but she's never been interested in acknowledging my existence. No great loss.
She seems to think working for centrelink makes her very high & mighty though. She's made comments to other members of their family saying she believes my sister is on PPS (She's not, never has been). Apparently she's trying to find out. This is why I assume she's not allowed to check files of family members, or she'd know already.
Then she sat at their table the other night & apparently told them that she could make it so someone wasn't allowed to ever get centrelink payments again. Which I'm sure is a load of BS.
Thing is though, that my sisters PPP has been cut off. She called them & the person she spoke to couldn't find any reason for it. Said he'd send out forms for her to fill in ASAP... I told her to call back, coz I'm sure they can do all this online now.
Does this all seem odd to you? We don't think the SIL had anything to do with it, but it is all a bit suss...
