I'm in SA and still nothing here....
I am in NSW and still no sign, I log on every day at least once LOL I am sooooo desperate for this money especially since we don't get the $1,000 per child.
If I have to wait 3 months I will die :(
I was told yesterday that mine was no where near being entered into the system so I should expect at least another month.... *groan*
Did you call them Christy? May do that too so I can stop getting my hopes up.
i think it's a crock for anyone to say "no where near being entered in the system"! we can't see where in the queue your usage statement lays - it might be top of the pile - how rude for someone to say that to you!
i'm in QLD and got mine yesterday hoping that it all comes through soon for you all
woo hoo mine is coming on monday!!! yay yay just in time for my big move!!
just a question,
what centre do you use?
I use ABC and I spoke to my director and she said they are all sent in via QLD and they are still on the old manual system so will be sending through end oct..
next finacial year all centre will be on the auto system so wont be waiting as long
Yay i finally had something on my front page today! mine is getting paid on Monday.
we were in a private new centre which uses the new ccms (but have had massive issues with it though)
i'm with a little CC centre that is fairly new not ABC they went to the new system a couple of months ago ( we had all the teething problems too )
YES!!!!!! Did my morning check just then and it is coming on Tuesday!!!! WOO HOO
Good for you!!!
BG I thought so too, but I said "its all good" I know they must be getting hounded. I was phoning about moving and all the other stuff we are having to change and just asked as an aside. Its good though, not getting my hopes up for it happening too soon ;)
I'm another QLDer and I got mine yesterday. My centre is using the new system as well.
I hope you all get your's soon.
still nothing for me either.. we use a private centre who are using the ccms system.
I called and updated details with FAO yesterday and almost ended up in tears.. the guy i spoke to was so rude, he told me it was a pain having to update details so i can claim my FTA.. as it was only going to be a couple of dollars anyway, he thought i should just wait until the end of the financial year.. he then proceeded to tell me how he thought that the govt is doing the wrong thing by giving away money ( $1000 ) to people, he also thought that on my family income i shouldnt get it.. although i am entilited to it.. we are under the cut off by $1500.. i asked to speak to his supervisor, and I told the supervisor that i wanted to make a formal complaint.. i was just so cross... i will following up my verbal complaint today with a written complaint.. people like him just shouldnt work in call centres, he had no customer service at all.. and as far as telling me that updating my details was a pain, well.. thats just wrong.
sorry just had to rant about it.. not really the right place.. but didnt want to make a new post about it..
mrs T - will just let you know - if you weren't on fortnightly payments on Oct 14th, you may not get the $1000 payment in December anyway - it was based on the income estimate on that date - if you didn't qulalify on that date, you'll possibly have to wait until you do your tax
glad the processing is showing so many of you getting payments early next week. to those with ABC, they DO have a month to lodge usage statements, and then it might take extra time for processing - which i guess is where the "three months" comes into it. my understanding is that all centres will be transferred to CCMS (where usage is lodged electronically each week) by next financial year
We're not with ABC and our centre is also on the new weekly system. So fingers crossed then that it won't take 3 months for me!
I spoke to FAO earlier in the week and had been told that it would be another 3 months before I would receive anything because none of the information had been received. I chased up my day care centre and afterschool hours centre and both said they had lodged all information. Called back FAO and was told that all information had been received just have to wait. There was no time line on processing. I asked could I get it by the end of next month but was told they couldn't say and was no guarantee.
I am sure alot of ppl are in teh same boat. I went back to work full time because of the 50% CCTR. I knew that I could JUST afford full time day care and OHSC by the end of October because then I would have this money. Its almost like there was no point in getting Full-time work.
Its just so hard. And answers like just wait ... it will happen I am sorry just aren't good enough. I get told old system new system etc... don't know.. or yes everyone will be paid at the end of the month.. All garbage. It isnt like I sit on my bum and put my child into care just to have a break or for the minimium work hours. I work 40 hour weeks. Single parent two boys.
And I am allowed to say it just isn't fair and stomp my foot. Makes me feel good for a few seconds at least.
My 9 month old belongs to ABC
5 year old OHSC
Happy for all those who are getting theres.. but I want MINE!!!
