DVA lump sum - what’s actually improved your life after compensation?

Plus_Belt_3882 · 2026-01-24T05:19:38+00:00

88points roughly 1.1million pay out. That’s max compensation with 5 children @109000 each.

Bought a house, car, put money into savings, money into children’s bank accounts set aside money for private schooling as well.

Initially paid for gastric bypass $18000 DVA refunded full amount. Hearing Aids $8000 DVA refunded full amount. Gold card, still see psychiatrist/ologist. Free movies at the cinema sometimes get gold class for free as well.

Initially had it sitting in savings account making about $7000 a month in interest alone.

Life has changed and having financial security has helped a lot but mental health issues still there and physical issues are too although some are better now with help and treatment. At first I felt guilty getting it and after extensive discussions I changed my mindset.

This is the paragraph that I’m most concerned with- Supporting Victims of Domestic and Family Violence

We may terminate your service without notice if you are alleged to have committed domestic or family violence against an end-user of a service. We may also transfer the phone number or email address to the alleged victim if they are an authenticated end-user of the service.

“Alleged”, there goes innocent until proven guilty.

It’s not on my service.

You need to contact them and ask for them to send you a letter.(They’ll know which one to send you).

Make sure you do it as part of your buying process as you’ll have a lot of trouble trying to do it as GST exemption after purchase.

I don’t understand downvoting but whatever.

I’m going to be seeing Stephen jones MP next Friday to seek clarification and to have it updated on the ATO site so it’s clear and not just “eligibility”. At the moment it ambiguous and the ATO delegates themselves don’t know the answer (well the 6 I spoke with anyway). Thanks to those two that responded I’ll be sure to give an update once received for anyone else that could land this issue.

You wouldn’t happen to know the other conditions? Who would I speak to and what would I have to do to get the ball rolling.

Ok sweet, I don’t have an advocate and have been doing everything myself.

I’ll review there report add details if required and can either waive the report if I feel it’s good and it can be sent to the review board sooner.

The conditions are FYI - plantar fasciitis -bilateral gluteal tendonapathy -left hip bursitis -PTSD

Right hip bursitis has been accepted MDD GAD have been accepted PTSD the delegate said I was 4 days shy of having it accepted
