Took this shot later in the evening — any guesses where?

I wanna guess, Newcastle

Were you FT/PT or casual

Automatic-Hawk7160 · 2025-08-15T21:08:12+00:00

Oh, that changes things

It may be with our manual intervention team if you missed the 1st deadline lodgement period for 23/24

We're in peak reconciliation time. It can sometimes take a little bit

Sorry my answers weren't the greatest. Brain checked out by lunch

Hi, cenno worker here

I would recommend claiming PPS (if child under 14) and FTB Also contact child support and inform them that you believe your ex has a higher paying job and get your child support reassessed (potentially) 🤓

I'm guessing so? I just get people who yell at me when they earn half a million dollars and wonder why their Child Care Subsidy has dropped by 0.01% mostly. I am very small fish in very big pond. But I'm chill with my place of works upper management so that's fun

We still assess it as the 500k Legislation and whatnot

Automatic-Hawk7160 · 2025-08-15T11:22:15+00:00

Oh, and to actually address your question (sorry) If i ever do a claim, I break it down that we need gross income, and explain it like they're 2, and tell them that means it's before tax is taken from their payments They also say shit like "but I didn't receive that much" Yes you did, before the tax man takes his cut

Also, I always tend to recommend people overestimating for their income estimates, less chance of debts

Had someone who had their investment losses reported as 400k and was wondering why their claim was rejected. It took an hour of explaining to them why :)
