I'm thinking you won't qualify, but he can claim his own payments

Thank you for answering...She will be doing a Diploma of Early Childhood Education through TAFE.

It is a Australian Qualification Framework qualification.

So what do you think??

Bumma! Cant claim her own payment as she is being paid, she’s worked since she was 13.5. She will be earning too much to claim.
