Tax Question- Regarding Centrelink

Sorry there has probs been so many posts about this but im not on often enough to see them.

Just wondering is there a link so i can see how much we are getting from centrelink per child and how much the family payment is etc?

Also someone i know mentioned a supplement payment of $900 also is this true and if so is it per family or per adult etc?

hey i was confused aswell so i called centrelink the other day and they explained- you get $714 per child under 16 if ur a single parent u get it with ur first centrelink payment after the 15th of july, if ur married or have a partner u get ur payment 2 weeks after ur husband/partner lodges their tax return. hope this helps!

i havent heard anyting about the $900 suppliment payment....although it would be nice.

I just had a nosey at that this morning....

Family Tax Benefit Supplememts

If you get A and B you will get over $1000 (as long as you don't owe any money), I was quite surprised at how much they give us <span class="emoticon smile">smile</span>

No, we don't receive the full payments and we are eligible. I'm not 100% sure if you just get a part supplement payment if you don't receive the full tax benefit or not. I can't remember what we got last year.

This always confuses me. We dont recieve Family tax part A but recieved the suplement last year. How does that work?

is this per child or per family?

Family Tax A supplement is per child.

Family Tax B supplement is per family smile

Wondering how this works as we didnt get it last year for our son?

If there something DP missed on his tax return?

It's basically there so if you accidentally get overpaid there is a little safety net. So for argument's sake if you overestimate income and are owed money by Centrelink then you will get the supplement. If you underestimated income, then Centrelink use this supplement to "pay back" the overpayment and you get charged for any excess.

Does that make sense?

It's automatically paid into your account after you and your partner have lodged you tax returns, or you have informed the Family Assistance Office that you do not need to lodge a tax return.
