Parenting payment single (and FTB) & married...

[MissM]

Hi Phynna,

If you go to the centrelink website you will be able to work out what you are entitled to.

I too also suggest you let them know before the debt becomes too big and you'll struggle more to pay them back.

I am not going to give you any slack about claiming PPS or if you lied etc, just let them know first thing and fix it

Thing is other half and I split up last year and started living seperately.
Whilst we've reconciled now, at time of application for dole after work put me on maternity leave, the situation for C/link was that we'd split, and were amiacable, then while we did marry until 3 weeks ago we were still living seperately (4 hours seperately), despite weekends together.
I'll ring tomorrow. Ta

It is good that you are going to ring them.

You can't just claim single because you aren't living together. There are plenty of people who for various reasons are living apart. Imagine if all the miners and defence force spouses could claim benefits just because their partners were working away.
