We've applied for a low income health care card and today Andrew received a letter from the Tax office saying that he might not have been eligible for the 2010 Education tax refund that he claimed as they state he did not have a child in his care during that time, because he did not receive Family Tax Benefit Part A.

All family tax benefits come in my name only. I don't know why that is, it just does. Andrew's name has always been on every single piece of paperwork we have ever filled in for centrelink. Does that mean we're not allowed to claim the Education Tax refund on his tax return? I don't lodge a tax return because I don't work. I am freaking out now that we have to pay back a pile of money. Which the letter states we do if he is not entitled.

My name and the kids names are always all over his tax returns as his spouse and dependants.

Online services are currently down and I am on an over 10 min hold to the family assist office. I have to wait for him to get home for him to follow up the taxation end, which is where the letter has come from.
