Tax exemption - Fact or Fiction?

[mumo5]

Hi Mumo5 , I think what your husband is saying is while you work it is tax free when you have a lot of kids because of the family payment , that is the case for us ,we have 9 kids and because of the amount of family payment we get my husband works tax free, if you can understand all of that, also we dont pay any medicare levy or surcharge because my husbands income is below what is required. Hope all helps.

AHHH! Right. Well that makes sense actually. Cause what I get a fortnight on family tax benefit is more than what dp pays in tax a fortnight. Although his fortnightly pay make it impossible for me to get parenting payment.
(That sad face is because I'm greedy and would love to go and get some new clothes every now and again lol)
And you lucky thing having so many little treasures. I'd love to have more but am a bit in limbo whenever I sit and think about what I'd want. If that makes sense at all. As much as everyone thinks we get so much from FTB it goes quite quickly when we are wanting food and other necessities. BUT... I love every moment with my little ones (especially the quiet moments if you know what I mean lol )
