Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today. I have your file here regarding your Parental Leave Pay. Could you tell me when your baby was born, and whether you worked recently before the birth?
मेरो बच्चा तीन हप्ता अघि जन्मियो, र म जन्मनु अघि पार्ट-टाइम काम गर्दै थिएँ।
That's good. To qualify, you generally need to have worked at least 10 of the 13 months before the birth. Did you meet that requirement?
हो, मैले काम गरेको थिएँ तर पूरा समय होइन, casual मात्र थियो। के त्यो गनिन्छ?
Casual work does count, as long as you met the hours test. However, if your partner's income is above a certain amount, it might affect your eligibility.
मेरो पतिले पूर्ण समय काम गर्छन्, त्यसैले म अनिश्चित छु कि म योग्य हुन्छु कि हुँदिन।
If you don't meet the income test, you may still qualify for other support like Family Tax Benefit. Let's check your documents first.
ठिक छ, मलाई कुन कागजातहरू चाहिन्छ भनेर भन्नुहोस्।
You'll need your baby's birth certificate, proof of income, bank account details, and your Medicare card. Do you have all of these ready?
मसँग सबै छ, तर मेरो राहदानी अझै Home Affairs मा भिसा नवीकरणको लागि छ।
That's fine, you don't need your passport for this application. Bring the other documents and submit your claim within 52 weeks; processing usually takes two to four weeks.
धन्यवाद, यो धेरै सहयोगी भयो। म अहिले नै कागजातहरू तयार पार्छु।
