When your child turns five . . . .

[Gigi]

does that automatically mean that Family Tax B DECREASES?

mine has just gone down by $40. Is that normal?

The Family Tax A (in two parts) has stayed the same.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Yep - max rate FTB B for a child under 5 is $140, which decreases to $97.58 for a child aged between 5 and 15.

HTH!
