Centrelink and studing.

[zap]

I am currently receiving parenting payment through centrelink and am about to start uni. Do I have to inform centrelink so they can change my payments to the study one? I am so dumb when it comes to this stuff and know I will get a quicker reply on her rather than waiting on the phone!

They shouldn't change your payments however you are entitle to a pensioner education supplement (I think)

That's what I got last time I studied - amounts vary between part time/full time

Even though I get ftb for the kids??

Yep, it's only a small extra payment but it's in addition to PP, FTBA+B.
