    Roflmao. No, I think the redirection to your house finished after 6 months so if I didn't change addresses with FAO then it would have gone to WA right?

    I live in QLD, not sure if it's the same Aus wide, but
    When I changed my address with Medicare they sent me to another desk in the same office to change it with FA.
    Are you talking about a group certificate? If yes, then you don't get one for family assistance as it's not "taxable income", according to my accountant.

    no medicare doesn't link to family assistance - even though they are both under human services portfolio, they are still separate entities

    BUT, having said that, ftb isn't considered an income, so you don't have to have a statement to prepare your taxes babe
    you will need to update your addy so that you get your statement once reconciliation has occurred - you can do that online if you're registered (you will still get a partial supplement for the period you were on ftbb)
