I discovered that I could receive Family Tax Benefit through the estimator so I lodged a claim and handed in the 2 forms they wanted through Medicare. That was 2.5 weeks ago and I know that they are most likely busy with claims but wondered how long I should give them to make sure they have all my info etc?

For anyone who has lodged a claim online, did you see a payment message on screen before you got a letter and did your claim status change from 'submitted' when it was processed?

Thanks
