    Clover is correct - the only thing that will change, if you are on PPS and FTB is potentially your rent assistance - when you notify of your change of address (you need to do so within 14 days of moving), ask for a rent certificate which your parents can sign to verify you are contributing to the rent and you can continue to receive some RA. If your child care details haven't changed, your entitlement to JET won't change and if you are studying you might like to consider applying for the Pensioner Education Supplement (you can download a claim form from the website, have one posted to you via the call centre or pick one up from your local office). HTH!

    I'm pretty sure you're not entitled to rent assistance if living with your parents until you're aged 25, even if they're charging you 'normal' rent. But other than that, your payments shouldn't be affected because you're considered an independent because you've got a child HTH!

    I was told I would be entitled to rent asisstance, but I was only paying my parents $20 a week, not enough to receive ra. I was only 19 at the time with DD1.

    Sorry, I'm not sure about the rent assistance thing.

    Your other payments shouldn't be affected at all. Mine aren't.
    Good luck with the move. I hope it's a smooth and hassle free one.
