We get ours split, but it gets paid in one lump sum as we had a joint account which makes it a bit easier ]]> Fri, 03 Jun 2011 22:37:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339980&title=accommodation-supplement#1339980 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339925&title=accommodation-supplement#1339925 Author: Babykatnz

They work out your entitlement using household income, then the amount gets split between you, so if you're entitled to $50 p/week based on his income, then you'll get $25 each. The first week is usually more than your normal weekly entilement as they will backdate to when you rang and made the appt. The backdated amount is also split ]]> Fri, 03 Jun 2011 21:06:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339925&title=accommodation-supplement#1339925 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339919&title=accommodation-supplement#1339919 Author: High9

We qualify too and we both get it but both had to fill forms out for it... You could always ring and double check but they won't take $50 back straight away if they have over paid you. They over paid us and just took a certain amount each week until fully paid... We got overpaid almost $400 somehow and they rung me right away and said keep it we'll just take x amount each week until it's paid. ]]> Fri, 03 Jun 2011 20:59:21 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339919&title=accommodation-supplement#1339919 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339847&title=accommodation-supplement#1339847 Author: crafty1

Usually you get it each, so he will get $50 and you will get $50. Yay, go shopping!

Makes a huge difference.]]> Fri, 03 Jun 2011 19:30:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339847&title=accommodation-supplement#1339847 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339838&title=accommodation-supplement#1339838 Author: sbeach

Just a quick question about this...

For those of you that get it do both you and your DH/DP get it?? IYGWIM

I qualify for about $50/week as DH works full time and I am a SAHM.

So do we both get $50 each a week therefore $100 for just the $50??

WINZ have paid us as though we both get it and I want to make sure before I spend it! as it will be a PITA to pay it back...

Thanks, thought it may be easier asking here than getting a straight answer from WINZ on the phone!!]]> Fri, 03 Jun 2011 19:17:42 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=39436&PID=1339838&title=accommodation-supplement#1339838
