    BG??

    I thought that I was geting FTB part B but I am getting Part A ($48 a f/n) so does that mean I will only get the $900 from the tax dept as I earnt under $80,000 last f/year (07/08)??

    As far as I could read that you only get the $900 from c/link if you get part B??

    Ill be happy with anything extra at the moment!!
    that's it KG

    the "single income" payment ONLY applies to those who qualified for FTBB on feb 3 - the school child payment applies to those who qualified for FTBA at same time

    the question that is almost impossible to answer is whether you get the worker's payment if you qualify for the ftbb payment - it's very up in the air

    can't confirm, but i've heard you had to have a tax liability - so you had to pay tax. no idea what threshold that kicks in at cos of low income rebates and things...

    if they do the same thing as last payment, all people who get paid on the mon/tues before the 11th of March will receive their payment on the weds (11th of march)

    I thought I read in the paper that the bonus payments were being paid like a tax return by chq unless you recieved your payment by online transfer so the address you have registed at the ATO is where the payment would be sent by chq???
    I still cant figure out what I will recieve as last finacial yr I recieved FTB B and earned over 40,000.

    the FTBB payment is not related to the 07/08 financial year at all

    it is related to your status on feb 3 this year

    i don't think it has been clarified if people will receive BOTH payments at all
