NEW PR - WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

Filamokio · July 2013

@nfronda I made a thorough analysis on that centralink family tax benefits just now (I have done anything since I arrived in the office ha ha ha) and here is my conclusion (please correct me if im wrong). The previous post i made has only half truth then (kasi naman yung agent ko eh).
* If ur combined annual salary is not more than 48,837 AUD (with two kids for the sake of computation), the benefits will be : (172.2*2*2) + (102.2 * 2) + (144*2, rental) = 1,181 AUD per month.
* If ur combined annual salary reach 79862 AUD, the benefits will be : (55.16*2*2) + (102.2 * 2) + (144*2, rental) = 713 AUD per month.
* If ur combined annual salary reach 94316 AUD or more, the benefits will be : (0*2*2) + (102.2 * 2) + (0*2, rental) = 202.2 AUD per month.

@nfronda sis iba pa ung child care assistance at child care rebate noh? But that is if nag child care anak mo? also, if nagchild care anak mo maaapektuhan ba ang family tax benefits?

nfronda · July 2013

@jengrata.yes iba ung child care benefit and rebate. Pag nag child care ung anak m, so eligible ka for child care benefit.. And if u are already receiving a child care benefit, u r not eligible for family tax benefit.. Ksi ung family tax benefit is for family who had children under their care..

jengrata · July 2013

@nfronda ah. Thanks for the info.

nfronda · July 2013

sis @nfronda, so pag pala wala pang anak.. hindi makakakuha ng Family Tax Benefit once we arrive in Au? Pang family with kids lang pala sya

nfronda · July 2013

@peach17.. Yes po!! Couple without a child or children is not consider a family.. As definition, family is compose of a mother, father and a baby.. In short u are not eligible for a family tax benefit..

I also searching a benefits that suits for a couple oonly, pro wla akong mahanap ehh..

don't think so... parang unfair naman yun sa australian government diba? magclaim ka ng assistance pero the beneficially of that aid is not here?!!

Bigfoot · July 2013

Hi guys, makikisawsaw lang po ako. As i understand in the following residency requirements for the Family Tax Benefits in relation sa query ni @Julz actually pwede po na matanggap nyo ung benefit na ito as long as naginitial entry na kaung family. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

"Residence requirements for Family Tax Benefit Part A and Part B
To be eligible for Family Tax Benefit Part A and Part B you must satisfy residence requirements. You must be living in Australia and:

have Australian citizenship, or
hold a permanent visa, or
hold a special category visa, or
hold a certain temporary visa type for example a partner provisional, interdependency or temporary protection visa
Your child must also meet the residence requirements or be living with you and you must continue to meet the residence requirements for as long as you get this payment.

You may be able to claim a payment during a temporary absence from Australia if you have been absent for less than three years."

question naman po sa mga me experience n s pag claim ng family tax benefits (including rental assistance) ...me requirement po ba silang proof of lease (i.e lease contract)...wonder kasi pano if nakiki share ka lang ng haws ...pano mo ma d declare that u pay rent if hindi ikaw ang naka pangalan s contract. thanks po sa info in advance

nylram_1981 · August 2013

@bigfoot: dun sa letter from centrelink, you need to inform them in case lalabas kayo ng AU even for a short period of time. I dont know if baka dahil mag-stop for a while un benefit if nasa labas ka ng bansa.

@cheesy: yes you need proof to claim the rent assistance. Lease/contract agreement.

Claiming Rent Assistance

You do not need to lodge a separate claim for Rent Assistance. We will assess your eligibility when you make a claim for another payment or when you contact to tell us that your accommodation details have changed.

You will need to give us proof that you pay rent, and you will need to complete a Rent Certificate. You can obtain the form using Online Services or at your nearest DHS Service Centre.

If you have a formal written tenancy agreement, you will need to show it to us. If you do not have one, or are not named on the tenancy agreement, the person you pay rent to will have to sign your Rent Certificate.

Hi @JCsantos, yung makakakuha lang po ba ng Claiming Rent Assistance ay yung mga PR na may anak na?

JCsantos · August 2013

Im guessing you need to be a family to claim the benefit

jengrata · August 2013

Hi @JCsantos, yung makakakuha lang po ba ng Claiming Rent Assistance ay yung mga PR na may anak na?

Peach, sa nabasa ko, ang entitled sa Rent Assistance eh ung maaapprove sa Family Tax Benefit. Eh ang entitled lng sa Family Tax Benefit yung may anak.
