sorry to upset - but there are some income tests applied to PPL - can't recall exactly off the top of my head, but your previous financial year income needs to be included on application because there is a limit to who it is is paid for.

I think I remember reading that, but it was so ridiculously high for us that DH and I would never earn that much in our lives that I ignored it =P

yeah it is probably irrelevant to most average joes like us - but there is an income limit so you need to be aware of it

Sorry to hijack, but BG I was told that the baby bonus is now income tested and the cutoff is a combined $75K pa. Is that right?

no, it's 75k in the six months immediately following the birth of the baby - so if mum is on unpaid mat leave and dad is on less than 150k pa, all good. if mum is on paid mat leave, then they'd have to make sure that dad's income was a bit less kwim?
