fucking centrelink has my birthdate wrong so i can't access my account and have to go into the office to show them my passport. how ridiculous, i've had youth allowance for more than 2 years now.
youth allowance is government welfare for students. except to get youth allowance from the government, you have to prove that you've earnt over $17,000 over 18 months. then you can get like $200 a fortnight. they stuff up soooooo much, and i can't believe the amount of shit that i've gone through to get it arggggh it's ridiculous!
its great, but the amount you get also depends on how much you earn per week (it reduces if you earn over a certain amount) and if you live out of home (you get more if you live away from home).

In about June this year, they sent me a message telling me I was too old for youth allowance and then cut me off. Apparently, they thought I was 26.
