if you lose your carers payment (I'm not clear on the respite allowances but you can have so many days per year of not meeting the care requirements and retain the payment - might be worth looking into if the job is initially a 3mth trial?), your eligibility for PPS would depend on whether you come under the income limit - $1993.35 p/fn gross plus $24.60 for each additional child. As long as you're under that limit and meet all other requirements for PPS (principal carer, asset test, age of children etc) you should retain your FTB at the same rate as you receive now.
