    Yeah, Abbott vowed to scrap it, but he has to pass legislation to do so. It may not be done in time for the next payment, so it may still just be issued:

    Will it be scrapped altogether or will it revert back to how it was before?

    You used to apply for it when you did your tax. You could claim up to an amount but only if you'd spent that much on items from the list and could provide receipts. It was called the Education Tax Refund - or similar.
