    ETR

    Just wondering, since the ETR automatically gets paid this year, Am I entitled for DS?
    We're in WA & kindy is compulsory for 4 year olds. He's only 2 days a week til next term. By 4th term he'll be 5 days.
    Kindy is part of all primary schools over here with the same costs as it is for the girls.

    It goes by age so if he is 5 before 31st of July then he will be entitled, otherwise not until next year.

    Oh wow, so because DS is 5 on the 28th of July, we get the ETR? That is going to be SO handy! Will cover his kinder fees for the entire year. I certainly wasn't expecting any form of payment until just now when I logged into my online services and saw a future payment in there for it. I came in here to see if I was being paid something I wasn't entitled to....

    well there ya go - so much for the info online huh?
    i have been processing unrelated stuff so was just going by what was on the website - i haven't researched this one myself except for tonight

    ETA - i don't think you're entitled to it if DS isn't 5 til July though - this is one of those situations where i'd ring and check - i'd hate for you to spend it then get a debt

    What are the qualifying criteria to receive this? DD is in pre-school and turned 5 on 9th May. Could we be eligible to get this?

    Tried FAO today for a few hours - they are obviously flat out.

    My Online services also updated - to saying that it's been paid into my account!! It hasn't shown yet in my bank account but I'll keep an eye on it. Will try FAO tomorrow afternoon when I get home again... I should be calling FAO shouldn't I??
