I too wish my dh could earn more money and we did not have to rely on gov assist, I have just started doing in home care through porse to boost our income, might as well since I'm at home with mine which I am also grateful that I am able to do, I could actually earn more than my dh but he is the one that chooses to work]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2008 21:07:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14247&PID=295727&title=working-for-families-for-2008-2009#295727 <![CDATA[Working for Families for 2008/2009 : I&#039;m a bit miffed about that...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14247&PID=295722&title=working-for-families-for-2008-2009#295722 Author: MissAngel

I'm a bit miffed about that WFF thing really. We just worked out that after the BF gets paid, mortgage comes out, bills come out, we have $200 a week to live on (I know its more than what a lot of people get and stuff, and i'm grateful) but we're eligable for a whole $26 a week. I lolled so hard. If we were both studying and renting we'd be hauling in $400 a week clear and be eligable for $300.. Makes me think maybe we should sell the house and go to uni!!! hehehe ]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2008 21:03:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14247&PID=295722&title=working-for-families-for-2008-2009#295722 <![CDATA[Working for Families for 2008/2009 : Alia - I hear ya on that.

Alia - I hear ya on that. We started out on Student Allowance, we have just completed our first year married with no benefit/student allowance yay! Being on a low income I'm really thankful for government assistance but if we earned it all ourselves I'd feel quite proud of us IYGWIM]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2008 16:02:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14247&PID=295509&title=working-for-families-for-2008-2009#295509 <![CDATA[Working for Families for 2008/2009 : Just says &#039;regularly adjusted...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14247&PID=295498&title=working-for-families-for-2008-2009#295498 Author: nikkitheknitter

It went up $10 last year, so that sounds about right Yay for more money!

Bee - I wish we didn't qualify for govt help! I'd much rather DF was earning enough, but we have no choice while he's studying full time.]]> Wed, 06 Feb 2008 15:04:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14247&PID=295473&title=working-for-families-for-2008-2009#295473 <![CDATA[Working for Families for 2008/2009 : I just read something on the website...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14247&PID=295459&title=working-for-families-for-2008-2009#295459 Author: MissCandice
