They never asked me anything like that, their whole case was based on time spent overseas with a bit of last minute poorly presented "lack of Australian connections" stuff. Of course, prior to 2012 the time overseas didn't matter... which was the reason they changed the legislation, which to me is still definitely dodgy because it doesn't state how long you can be away for (in total, over a given period) in black and white.

Actually, you will be a good case study for this special permission for portability that they now speak of. If you have proven your residency ties enough to keep DSP, and if you are found to be able to work more than two hours, you could ask for special compassionate leave due to your grandaughter and humanitarian work that you do over there. I would be looking at those areas, if you have to appeal to the AAT. You will know what you are up against, once you receive the SSAT's decison in writing. That shouldn't take too long.

Hope so Spacey. What is special this special permission for portability? A lot of questions were asked re grand daughter especially in regards to who was the primary carer which is me of course. Nothing significant was mentioned re the times I have been out of Australia which is woeful. I womder how many residency cases SSAT has overturned? Besides Banjo anyone else?

Nothing significant was mentioned re the times I have been out of Australia which is woeful. I womder how many residency cases SSAT has overturned? Besides Banjo anyone else? Hil Lynne. You would have to research what this means. I had noticed it recently when posting about portability. It is a requirement under both the Social Security (Administration) Act 1999[15] and the A New Tax System (Family Assistance) (Administration) Act 1999[16] that if a person intends to leave Australia they are required to notify of their intention to do so. There will be some payment recipients who have the means to take a temporary absence from Australia for a period of more than six weeks. In such cases, payment will probably be able to be made for the initial six weeks and then the person will need to reapply upon return. Currently, for a few payments, there is the capacity to allow an extension of payment beyond 13 weeks on a case-by-case basis.[17] It is probable this facility will also apply to this proposed reduced portability period. [17]. The discretion to extend portability applies to DSP, Newstart Allowance, CP and Partner Allowance. I imagine you would apply to the secretary, of Centrelink, requesting that you be allowed to spend vast chunks of time there, until the child is old enough to care for herself.
