    I had my baby last year, and it was installments (and I am in QLD).

    baby bonus is a payment from the federal government so all states fall into the same category - it's paid in installments of approx 398 per fn for 13fn's - you can't change payment date - if you receive your first payment on a monday, you'll get the next 12 fn's on the same day

    Yep, I'm in Canberra too and just got my first installment of $398 the other day.
    It's exactly as briggsy's girl said
