    Miscellaneous payments

    Hi, we received $669 and $327 today, i have no idea what its for as i was only expecting the $1k per child on the 8th... theres no statement yet either. Did anyone else get these bonuses?

    can you log onto the website and see what they are?? maybe they are differences in FTA or FTB from your tax returns?

    Sounds like youve just had your tax reconciled. Those numbers sound like the family tax A and B supps.

    yup - what Jo said - FAO have received confirmation of your taxable incomes and your FTB has been reconciled for the year

    there is an amount of both FTBA and FTBB are held back each year (kinda as a safety net in case you underestimate your income) - once your taxable income is confirmed, if you've estimated correctly, you get that money as a lump sum. you'll get a letter in a couple of days

    if you want more info (i'm too tired tonight to type it all up) there is a thread in here about the "$600 per child payment" - will explain it all for you!
