$800 on top of the $1000 wtf?!

[~Raven~]

I'm sure that is an amount that's called a reconcilliation. They withhold it JIC you have an overpayment and they take any money owing from that first if you have a debt. No debt and you get it all paid to you.
Noice hey!

Hey I'd do 2 surveys in a month if it meant I got $800 Seriously though that's great if you can get your car now.

I'd do a lot of things to get an extra $800 !!!!LOL

Raven is right - it's the reconcialliation amount that people get after they do their taxes. given you don't need to do a tax return, the person updated the system to reflect that it no longer has to wait for the ATO to tell it your details anymore. there is a whole thread about the $600 per child payment - it might make more sense if you read that one...
