Hi
I'm a Mum of two boys that are adhd, autistic and one has dyspraxia. I'm only working 2 days a week and I have a boyfriend who wants to move in with me he currently lives 800kms away. Does anyone know how this will affect my centrelink payments? What payment would I be entitled to?
I get a part carers pension (due to reporting my income), ftb a & b (only for one child) rent assistance and carers allowance.
I don't want to lose everything that helps me support their needs/specialist appointments.
what payments will I lose?

You will probably loose your carers pension, you won't loose the allowance. I'm unsure about FTB. It depends a lot on your boyfriends income. You can ask centrelink for more accurate info.
It's time to have a really honest discussion with your BF about finances because if he expects you to pay for all of your kids needs this relationship will never work.
I had to go my separate ways with a guy for this exact reason! He expected me to pay for my kids but because of his high pay I would have lost all my payments.
