    Combined income limit of 150k. I can't be bothered working out whether that is before or after the baby Baby Bonus.

    I would think the ATO webpage was probably a good place to start !

    The correct name for it is the "Big screen TV bonus". I always laugh how the sales people at Harvey Norman and the like make a beeline for the parents with a new baby in the pram. They're cashed up and ready to go.

    Or wheel and tyre bonus.

    The last $900 payout for families by the KRrudderment resulted in a lot of "specials" - 4 mag wheels and tyres for $900. What a coincidence !
