Family Tax Benefit Supplement Payment (after Tax time)?

Question

Does anyone know when the FTB A & B will be paid this year after my partner has lodged his tax return and i have advised centrelink that i do not need to lodge this year. Last year we received the payment in September, but im not sure if that was because we lodged our Tax returns a bit later in the year...

Answer 1

The family assistance office has changed the way things are done now.. it won't come out in our tax return.. I wish cos i was hoping for that this year.

They have changed it to october i think.. go on the centrelink.gov.au   website and they should have that info there for you.. i received a letter the other day. it includes the childcare rebate as well.. it was all too confusing and I can't get it any sooner so i just let it go and i'll get a payment when i least expect it and it will be a bonus.

I hate dealing with Centrelink other wise i would bring up the info page as a link for you.. Sorry!

Answer 2

You answered your own question after which time your partner has lodged, i should get mine next week as i dont have to lodge im expecting to be the same as last year.

Answer 3

When you lodge your tax return.. it should appear in your account around about the same time you recieve your tax return cheque. We lodged ours late last year got it about november.. however this year we've decided to be paid fortnightly not yearly.
