    You would only need to swap PPP over. FTB can still be in your name.

    the main difference that could occur from FTB if/how how FTB B will be affected, depending ont he change in income forthe lower income earner.

    But someone correct me if I'm wrong - it will also depend on when in the financial year you make the change???

    Because one of the FTBs is done based on teh lower- income person's income, if you suddenly start earning within this tax year, you could nudge out of the zone, and if he's already earnt a whole heap, he won't qualify either...is that right...except when the new financial year starts you can reset your estimates and then it'll just go back to being nearly the same as now.

    Always a hassle when your income changes near the end of the fin year.

    MD, thats part of what I meant byt FTB B being affected.
    But, if Abb has been on zero til now, theres not a lot of time left to earn over the maximum, but the rate might change.
