Baby bonus instalments Q

[DoubleK]

Can anyone tell me.. with the baby bonus instalments, do they come as a seperate payment.. or are they included in the FTB payment?

i was hoping to be able to set it up so we recieve one payments one week, and the other the next week.. rather than get it all in one week, and nothign the next..


Thanks!

They are a fortnightly payment of just under $400 and they are given on the same week as family payment but are classed as a different payment if that makes sense? Im pretty sure we get bonus mondays and family payment fridays...

The Baby bonus is $385 which I get on a Friday of one week then the following week I get FTB on Wed of the other week. I didnt ask for it. Just the way they did it.
