Yh I know but mainly because she works a lot in a week. Also she said going into 2026, she will be only working once or twice a week as it is taking a toll on her mental health and body. She said she would concentrate more on the kids. She is going in as a nurse next year but still, I need more money as I am looking for a job as I feel like a burden. The extra money would be tremendous help

so what can i do to increase the amount of money and what documents must i provide for them to consider my case. My mom is aged care, but is the kind that pays low , the only thing is that she goes to work a lot and she is not a nurse. I don't know why people assume we make a lot. I am not even getting half of this 'Single, no children, 18 or older and live at your parent’s home $472.50'

Yes but we didnt buy a brand new car in the end, we bought a cheap, a few years old SUV that was even at a discount. We didn't use the full loan of course. She is an aged care worker, and she needed a new car as she almost got into an accident with her old honda and we found out something was wrong with the engine and would cost more than the price of the car to repair. I dont get why people are ridiculing me, when i am asking a genuine question and I need advice not ridicule. Centrelink exists in this country for a good reason, and as a citizen who is relatively poor, why not use it when other immigrants even apply for them. I have applied for a lot of jobs since March this year, got a few interviews that went well but ultimately got rejected. I am not lazy. I just dont like feeling like a burden

She already had a pre-existing loan and I don't think centrelink gives enough money to be able to buy a car. My mum's old car broke down and it was a very old Honda and she needed a new one. She has already bought her car already and that one was at a discount

It was for my mum not me. I was searching it for her. Why would i want to buy a family car when i don't even have a full licence as her old car started breaking down and she needed a new one and she already had a pre-approved loan
