    And to my understanding you cant get paid until bubs is born and your forms are lodged. I think they back date it if you leave work before you EDD but you wont see any money until the forms have been processed. Is that right BG?

    I don't particularly mind when the payments are made - I just want to get the application done so I can stop having to remember to do it LOL

    Yup no payment until bub arrives and you lodge proof if birth. If you have opted to have ppl start at date if birth it will only be backdated if you lodge within set time frame (I think 14 days. It may be 28 - dont quote me!)
