Hi to all sisters,
HAPPY BOXING DAY!!!
The Mel's weather is very good today!! We went to Box Hill Garden for pinic this afternoon.....and the kids enjoyed it so much!!!
Fiona,
Yes...we had a wonderful time in HK....but felt so sorry about couldn't meet you guys in HK, but nevermind...maybe you and your family will come to Mel for livining very soon.....
Cecil,
How are you feeling now?? All sisters in Mel can't wait to welcome you and your family to here!!!
津貼方面,要睇你家庭總收入來計算,如果你初初嚟到,就要申報"estimate income" in that financial year,如果到30/June (end of financial year),你申報嘅Taxable income多過實際,佢地就會pay back俾少你嘅childcare津貼,
牛奶金(Family Tax Benefit-FTB)係有分part A and part B,如果你屋企只係有一個income source, i.e. 淨係得你先生做嘢,你係full-time mum,咁你就可以攞到both part A & B嘅FTB,如果你兩個都做嘢,就只可以攞到part A, FTB都係因應你屋企全年嘅"taxable income"去計算嘅,所以個個人攞嘅FTB都唔同,除咗FTB,仲有rental assistance,如果你租屋,每兩星期都有D津貼,又係視乎你嘅"taxable income"囉,另外重有就係"Health Care Card",如果你嘅家庭總收入係低過一個limit,(好似AUD$35000/year-我唔係好sure,要check番至confirm),佢地就會出一張"Health Care Card"俾你,係日常生活上,只要有呢張card,就會俾平D嘅價錢,例如: 水,電同gas費,動物園,遊樂場,museum嘅入場費等等....
其實重有好多稅務同津貼嘅嘢,你過到嚟,慢慢search喇.好似好長氣咁,希望幫到你喇!!!!
The weather in these few days is wonderful. We went to Spot light yesterday and bought many funny stuff. We've bought a framed blank canvas and some arcylic paints to make baby hand print. Nathan didn't know what's going on when we put his hand in paint and then the canvas, so he keep hiding his fingers!! Finally made a hand print painting ... in a mess. haha.
I am so busy in this few days cos my father in law back to Korea on 25 Dec, and I drove him to Airport that morning. and on 26 Dec, I went to Boxhill brought some foods for preparing AIden's second birthday party on 27 Dec. And today, he got wonderful and happy birthday ... got a lot of presents, playing with kids.
Jeff doesn't mind he get bored in the gathering party on 23 Dec. He knows I did that as well when go to his korean friends' gathering. Thank you for Mr Lam's cooking and Vincy preparing this gathering. Sometimes it really hard to get thing done well as you wishes. You did wonderful jobs already, Vincy. Never mind.
Vicki,
Kids are like that, sometimes will fight. Don't worry about that. As long as they don't get injured, is ok. Never mind.
Cecil,
