    I prefer it to be paid fortnightly that way it can't be blown on useless crap, even though i would not let it be. And because it will get paid over 6 months means ill be covered for money for bub until i got back to work.

    $380?

    Why am I getting paid more?? Does it change State to State?

    We certainly aren't getting any other payments, we aren't eligble....I get paid $399 fortnightly.

    yep, it should be $390 p/f for 6 months ($5185 / 13) as per Centrelink website. So what you're getting leesa is correct.

    Ta Jodi, I would assume it be right - but I was thinking of calling them to make sure I wasn't being paid something I'm not entitled to, would hate to have to pay it back!

    Hey Ladies,

    I am having twins.... I know I get double the bonus but do you think I would be able to space it out over a year??? or get a payment weekly instead of every f/n???
