FTB - lump sum

I applied for this 3 weeks ago.
Does anyone know roughly how long before it comes???? I really need that money!!

If you applied for a lump sum to come out of your fortnightly payment, it should be paid on your next FTB payday, I can't remember how long it takes to approve them, but it wouldn't hurt to call them about it.

Thanks Trillian. I applied for a lump sum as for the last 6 months my income estimate was too high so i wasn't reciving fortnightly payments. But since i earnt way less than the estimate i was entitled to something. sojust waiting for that to come trhough

there vis no timeliness standard for processing lump sum claims. claims for fortnightly payments take priority. it will be done when it is next in line. sorry hun
