  • confirm your income for Family Tax Benefit””this means you and your partner need to lodge a tax return with the Australian Taxation Office, or tell us you don’t need to lodge one. You need to do this so we can balance your payments and pay you top-ups or supplements.

If you don’t lodge your lump sum claim for Child Care Benefit by 30 June 2014, we won’t be able to check your eligibility for Child Care Rebate.

If you receive Family Tax Benefit, you may be eligible for the Family Tax Benefit Part A supplement. You may need to have your child fully immunised or get a health check for them so you can receive this supplement.
