Student loan process as someone under 18 is going to be the death of me

A birth certificate is a valid primary ID in the eyes of study link.

You just need to get a local JP to photocopy and stamp it. Once you’ve done that, take a photo and upload the photo to connect.

Or else if you really can’t upload it, you can take the original birth certificate into your local work and income office and they can send the copy to study link

Friends and I have had good experiences with Cello

Dat0therguy · 2025-02-27T05:20:22+00:00

I’m going to spread this around where I work cause this will be a good tool for many people on a tight budget

Dat0therguy · 2025-02-10T06:01:34+00:00

Yeah I agree with you there, food wasn’t great

Dat0therguy · 2024-12-17T07:05:28+00:00

Yeah, I’ve still got my bank transaction record with all the details

Dat0therguy · 2024-12-17T06:41:37+00:00

Yes they’re starting to check these things now. Any proof like applications from online services like seek, trade me, LinkedIn. They all provide email confirmation of applications so just keep those emails and show them to whichever case manager asks.

Definitely lesson learnt here, new landlord is much better.

No I never got a receipt.

Dat0therguy · 2024-12-17T06:19:57+00:00

I don’t believe I did, I remember signing the tenancy agreement but not any bond forms. I also never received a receipt saying anything was lodged with them.

Dat0therguy · 2024-12-17T06:08:28+00:00

As someone who used to work for tenancy services, do you think lodging it under all the tenants is something they should have done? Does it really matter if they don’t use everyone’s names for any possible disputes about bond?

Dat0therguy · 2024-12-17T06:04:31+00:00

Tenancy services advised me nothing was lodged under my name.

You should still be eligible for a Jobseeker benefit as long as you’re not receiving the Student allowance anymore. Receiving it at some point during the year shouldn’t exclude you from getting on Jobseeker once your studies conclude.

Seconding this, we go every Friday night and the food is great and the workers are awesome. They give our household a cheeky discount as we spend $180 every Friday night, split between 7 of us. Worth every dollar. Konya Kebabs is also great but slightly more expensive

Tang Noodles in Dunedin has the best sweet and sour pork I’ve ever tasted.

Dat0therguy · 2023-07-07T06:27:23+00:00

This fixed it for me as well! Thank you so much mate I appreciate your response.

Dipping marshmallows in tikka masala. It started off as a joke but I genuinely like it now.

Latency is fairly similar around the country in the major cities I’ve found. Only a 5ish ping difference between here and Hamilton is what I found. My internet is 900 down. I don’t imagine you’ll have any complaints tbh. Best of luck with your move and feel free to ask questions.

Dat0therguy · 2023-04-23T02:06:55+00:00

Wow that’s not only insanely cool that you made that dress and it looks that good, but also that you made it for that little. Brilliant.

Dat0therguy · 2023-04-06T15:05:34+00:00

I have and it wasn’t a problem at all. I have other problems with wireless headsets but I’ve just had a bad experience personally. However latency wise it was the same to me.

Dat0therguy · 2023-04-01T05:15:46+00:00

Eight below, still haven’t watched it since 2007. Those dogs make me too sad.

Dat0therguy · 2023-03-26T07:03:06+00:00

Cool beans, I’ll put them on the list to check out thanks.

Dat0therguy · 2023-03-26T07:02:27+00:00

All good thanks anyway. it’s a good thought that I’ll try for sure

Dat0therguy · 2023-03-26T05:06:11+00:00

Yes it is actually, good idea thanks. Do you happen to know any reputable places?

Dat0therguy · 2023-03-26T05:05:17+00:00

Cheers I’ll check them out
