PPL does NOT impact on your rate of Parenting Payment. Anything you receive in PPL must be included in your FTB estimate as taxable income, but it is not classed as income for income support (pensions & allowances) purposes.
Really?? When I rang Centrelink they told me it would impact on parenting payment as I had to report it as income!!! Grrr, now I am going to have to call them *again*.
