    baby bonus and clink payment

    Hi

    I was wondering if anyone could answer a couple of questions for me...

    A friend of mine told me that your not entitled to the baby bonus if your babys father doesn't pay child support. and also that your no entitled to any centrelink payments at all even the pps...

    Can anyone help

    Thanks

    Weather or not the babies father pays child support has nothing to do with your entitlements from centrelink (including baby bonus).
    If you don't claim child support, it will affect your payments, but you will still be entitled. So as long as you are registered with the child support agency & they have his details, all will be fine
