Made it through the first in office shift despite some anxious wobbles, now time to cosy up with my cat who's acting like he's been abandon.

Further update for anyone who saw my previous posts:

I haven't gotten the message telling me I've been accepted, but my payment in my Centrelink online account has swapped to Disability Support Pension. This is such a huge load off my shoulders. I finally made it.

Payment schedule is odd, my "last payment" listed says 13th of July, but I received my $33 telephone allowance just after midnight tonight, which is odd since that was meant to arrive tomorrow. My first listed payment(the 13th of July "last payment" one) also has reduced pension payment but 3x the rent assistance and pension supplement on it. Very weird.

Still have to wait on Centrelink's letter to see if I have any mutual obligations, but I'm so happy. I think I'll get some backpay to my claim date, but some people have said online that they only backpay if the claim took over 6 months, or had to be appealed. So I'm not sure. Still. Happy.

That's awesome news for you. Dealing with Centrelink is such a pain, it's great to actually get some good out of it.

[–] Pilk@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Thank you for sharing the good news :)

[–] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Congratulations! I know what it's like waiting for Centrelink to do anything 🙄

Mmm. Thanks. For me, turducken is not just a delicious meal, but it's a symbol of working together - even with those you wouldn't normally - towards a greater goal.
