perhaps someone can clear this up for me a little bit.

I am full time uni, if i dont get centrelink, cos i work two jobs insted, im not elligable for the bonus for students right?

I was haing a read and it looks like its only to those on centrelink. The only reason i left was because i could support myself better without it and i was sick of there crap, now i dont get a bonus because i work to hard?

Im not sure how this works... I think the bonus should apply to all students in approved courses.

As for the general bonus, this gets paid out at tax time yeah?

Bonus will be paid to works from March and April. By form of EFT or Cheque. If you did tax via etax or accountant and used EFT it will be transferred via EFT.

From what I can tell from the wording, the only times payments double up is if you have children for school. So if you study and work, you will get one payment.

its a wierd thingy. My mate has just become a bricky, so he says he will get 2 payments of this $900 or, one for earning less than the 80k thingy, and another for being an apprentice through the last 12months.

And then some people dont get it at all.. Eg: pensioners and disabled.

ahh ok, was just making sure. Thanks m-unit.

Thing with Aus is, the harder you work... the more you get screwed over. We seem to promote lazyness

as my mates dad said the other night.
Dont be afraid to take money from centrelink, because they'll rape your for it later on in life.

Your right ^^^ Only if you have children will you get 2 payments, Ive got a baby and get the smallest amount from centrelink (its a joke really) cos my husband works, but i will get the money for my daughter and i intend to spend every last cent on her!!!

Leigh $900 = Spending on His CAR!!!! LMAO!!!!
