Hey Everyone! Admin here, It's a bit overdue but I will be migrating our forum site to a new platform for better security. I will take out all the ads as well as these pesky spammers. Please expect a bit of issues here and there, and will slowly move the features to the new one. Don't worry we are very much alive and will be alive as long as I'm here :)

We are intending to apply for visa subclass 489, anyone can tell if 489 visa holders are eligible for child care benefits and/or childcare rebates? If not, are we supposed to pay the whole fee? Salamat

From what I understand, visa 489 holders are not eligible to claim CCB and CCR.
