Reissue of FTB A?

[Trillian]

I had our FTB cancelled because of me starting work, so I haven't gotten any FTB for ages, but today there was a fair bit extra money in my account from c'link. Went to online services and it said it was a reissue of FTB part A? What is a reissue? Thanks.

Generally it means they tried to pay it to an account that rejected it. Have you had a letter to update your account details recently?

[Trillian]

No, we've been using the same account the whole time and I haven't had a letter at all. A while back we had to pay a small debt because DH's taxable income was checked and adjusted and we paid it back at the time so maybe it's to do with that?

If you've paid a debt (like a non lodgement debt from a previous year - if tax isn't done on time they raise full year payments as debt) and then the taxable income is received showing you were actually entitled to thise payments, they will reissue the payment as an over recovered debt. It would show up as a a reissue in those circs too
