all ABC statements get lodged to head office, who then process and submit to centrelink - due to the mammoth number of ABC centres, it may be holding up the processing. the cc was supposed to have it to c'link by october 31 - it is possible that it's just taking time for the processing team to get it onto the system
there has been a change in processing system for probably have the child care centres in AU that now submit statements weekly - the aim is to have all centres on this system by July 1 so that hold ups like this don't happen...

wondering if some1 can help me out here.. must be the night feeds but i dont understand the criteria for CCB. (pretty sure i dont qualify for CCTR thats pretty plain that i need 2 work for that)
situation: hubby is on 55k pa and its a few dollars over the low income HCC threshold.. so no free kinder for us. I dont work. I recieve FTB A & B for the 2 kidlets.. DD goes to kinder/preschool.
at one point i thought i was reading and thought that if ur below the income test u recieve 30% and if you both work its %50?.. anyways i've wasted about a hour trying to sift thru the info on clink & Fao and read thru this thread lol. :)
x.x anyways very confused.. a yes or no answer will help me plenty :)
-
ccb is a sliding scale based on your income estimate - so for 55k, you'll get more ccb than someone on 60k - exactly the same as FTBA. the only thing that varies is whether you work or not - if both you and your partner work study or train for at least 15 hours per week, you get up to 50hours of ccb each week, if one of you doesn't, it's a maximum of 24 hours
the 30%/50% thing is for when both parents meet the work study training test. up until the end of the 07/08 financial year, you got 30% of your out of pocket costs rebated if you both met it (so th amount you pay on top of ccb), it's now gone up to 50%

It's good to have the Encyclopaedia BG on here!
-
this poor encyclopedia is feeling very drained at the moment!
-
When is the next CCTR coming???????
-
are you being facetious lady?
start late jan i think
i haven't been at work though hun so i don't know (and sorry, i don't care either! :p )
-
Honey I am so desperate for money I was serious!! I am trying to work out how to get enough for Christmas and Erin's birthday!
-
it won't start paying til at least jan 20 sorry babe
-
I got my payment!!! Finally :) But I'm happy I got it! Just in time to pay the rent ;) and the rego, and the rates in Brissy, and the Ikea bill :redface:.... okay didn't get that much $$ but one can dream...
-
Sob, never mind may just try to increase my visa limit! Jess suggested I take up stripping but I said at my age and weight they would be paying me to keep my clothes on LOL
-
whatever earns you some dollars mrsmac... :lol:
-
.....The second quarter payment, I'm still waiting on the first. LOL
-
mrsmac I'd give you a dollar for a lap dance ;)
-
Nelly send me your address and I'll be there LOL!!!
-
I'm still waiting on mine too. Was told that if payment is not processed by the 13th of January there is an automatic push on payment triggered. Where they just estimate and pay it out.
So fingers crossed no one has to wait till that point, for all those who are still waiting.
-
question.... what entitles you to the extra 50% off the gap rebate?
-
You and your partner both need to meet the work/study rule PP.
LOL MrsMac, I never thought of that. I'll bet people would pay me to keep my clothes on too.
-
i got a tax rebate but i only worked about 10 days this financial year.... is that right?
-
PP, were you on maternity leave when you were not working? Maternity leave meets the work/study requirements as long as you go back to the same job. Otherwise, if you were not working, studying, looking for work or on maternity leave, the whole time, you should only get it for the period where you were doing one of those things.
-
Not paid materntiy leave Mel.
i worked june-august so that would equate to that quarter.
-
It doesn't have to be paid maternity leave PP. Unpaid leave meets the requirement as well. That one surprised me too, when I first got paid CCTR after being on maternity leave I rang them to tell them I'd been overpaid LOL. But apparently I was actually entitled to it, so that was a great bonus.
-
as long as you're on Mat leave with the intention of returning to your job, you're entitled to CCTR. if you're not going to be returning to work, call up and get it changed now so that you don't end up over paid
keep in mind that you can be engaged in study or training and still meet the qualifications, or if you have or are caring for a person with a disability...
