anyone who isnt a student cant get their money yet because of a court case. someone has taken the ATO to court on the grounds of the legality of giving out the package. because it is not a 'tax refund' as such, AFIK the ATO can not give out the money, and thats why noone has got it yetQuote:

The only site i found for info was Centrelink and they make it sound like you need to be signed up already for Aust study and youth allowance
ta
if the court case falls through then as long as you paid 'net' tax in the 0708 financial year you will get the $$$. if you didnt pay net tax, ie got all your tax back, then you wont get a dime, just like meQuote:

we'll find out when the high court hand down the decision tomorrow sometime, i think the bloke is nothing but a w@%*er who has nothing better to do with his time than making himself a target for every aussie who was hoping for his money.the only good place for lawyers are at the bottem of the ocean, they cant do any harm there.:p
money should go into something better anyway. most of it will be sent of shore when people buy big screen tvs etcQuote:

i see your point Blackie. but on the other hand, I'll be glad some my hard earned taxes might be coming back to me instead of going to some young mother who has 6 kids to 6 different fathers who don't pay maintenance .:mad: I was going to spend it on getting a tattoo and maybe if i have any left maybe on the toyfair next weekend :D
agreed.Quote:

I'm getting my $950 on Monday with my Youth Allowance payment and I applied on March 7-10. I was not sure if I was going to get it until I read a letter they sent me this week. Recipients of Youth Allowance are getting the bonus up to June 30, so there may be a chance still...Quote:

I would agree to that but in reality it doesn't. Just look at Sydney.Quote:

I know exactly what you mean. I feel the same way too, its like the system was designed to benefit married couples with kids and shun people who wish to be single and actually gives to the government rather than take.Quote:

Took bloody long enough considered I lodged my return in the first few days of July. Stupid "random postcode" system.
Hear hear!Quote:

Hopefully get it this week.
i read a supposed ato insider leak - it said they do use the random Postcode thing, but the dont distribute to the whole Postcode in one hit - so each night they will choose say 100 postcodes, and pay 1000 people n each postcode, and then the postcode goes back into the lottery - once the final people in that postcode get paid, then that code is removed...Quote:

I know my post code hadn't been picked before because I still do work on the weekends at my old job (the accountants/tax agents) and had seen the $900 come in for other post codes, just not the one I was in.
Depends where you spent that money.Quote:

Well I Just bought a new computer chair to replace my broken one and I also need a new bed and matress, my current one has a sinkhole. So In my case it seems Rudd will be getting what he wants. ;)
Well colour me stimulated! My Krudd money finally arrived. Time to indulge my inner consumer whore and waste this hard-earned on crap that I just don't need.
That's not hard-earned money. Its easy-handout-moneyQuote:

Yeah what the Government has basically done is given us is a refund of the money we have been paying them over the years as taxes. The only ones that truly get 'freebies' are the dole bludgers.
