Not even worth the reply to mylittletibbies!

Don't be sorry for your name calling - thinking that you can just say it! i am certainly not ignorant, i do not lack the awareness, & gained knowledge from growing up in the 70"s - it is not all about You - you could cease the name calling as...

You are not the only one that has had a not so easy life with a lot of traumatic experiences - so why don't You Get Real - this was not about our stories as many of you have written and then write as if the rest of us have no idea about...

Centrelink do advise that they can make informed decisions & that it can be looked at as a case by case matter! I agree with your common sense approach - i would also try the ombudsman.

That is grt if she is being offered jobseeker, i hope she is also being offered a 3 month exemption, to not have to look for work, whilst she seeks the help she needs to go thru her grieving - we are not all the same when it comes to personal...

And very well said to you Ingot with the truth of the matter that needs to involve the heart as well as the head. Your common sense approach and medical experience is exactly spot on. I myself have worked in a hospital in the area of MH and a...

Been there done what! It is the govt that needs to help - if not in the beginning of the crises and trauma then it becomes long term which in turn will cost the govt in the health system and in the long term cost of centrelink benefits whilst the...

No we pay the ones who need the help for a certain amount of time, the ones that are in a financial crises, & not able to return to work for a certain period of time due to personal trauma, the ones who have also paid taxes whilst they where working.

Pardon my ignorance - wasn't it women who wanted the change in the 70's! just so that pple are aware i am a female person that has lived thru the 70's & i feel that this woman needs financial help - she is in crises and is going thru...

Are you for Real! - have some understanding - you sound just like the criteria that c/link have in place, not forgetting that she was one week out of being eligible - what sort of stupid rule is this that c/link have put in place. Weeks and weight...

I love the one pot wonders too! And Garlic chicken is a favourite - but this sounds and looks amazing! thankyou Suzanne:-)

And it looks extremely delicious - can't find those ones in a cake shop! Yummo and thankyou:_)

Now that's a helpful great idea!

Thankyou for your reply - sounds like a good idea for pple to at least have their names on the books if they have that system in WA:_)

It's the only way to manage the bills - have no air-con, a few fans, but have really felt the heat this year - we do not live in a brick house either - it has many times made me feel physically sick - take more showers then & keep hydrated -...

I am in agreeance with what you are expressing - i am not angry - just frustrated that pple have to jumps thru hoops to get the help they need - the march increase is not significant! Welfare recipients have always been under the poverty line...

It sounds like c/link also needs workshops & training in how to perform their work in a much more timely manner, as in time management skills! This happens a lot due to shortage of staff, and absentee due to burnout - gov't just needs to employ...

That's disgusting - seek further assistance from the complaints number which c/link provides, to advise of your financial situation which is now in crises (no payments as yet). With children to feed, call the welfare services in your area, to ask for...

And sadly for c/link recipients they are the ones that are being financially affected, causing undue stress, particularily if they already have existing health issues.

I don't think anyone would whinge if their pensions where doubled - why would we need to move - when we are still living below the poverty line in this country on the amounts of c/link benefits that one receives!
