Proving I'm a full time student (1 Viewer)

[zaqwerty]

I'm applying for Youth Allowance in December this year (to avoid the new rules coming in) and I was just wondering - how do I prove I'm a full time student, as I won't be enrolled in any classes yet (for 2010)...? I will be studying full time Semester 2 this year.

These days it's pretty common for Centrelink to have links with places of study (ie. universities/tafe etc) so you wont need to prove it, as long as they have access to this information through their systems.

Wait for them to ask for clarification/proof before you start worrying about it too much.

Student Administration will print you off proof though it costs a bit

I just had to name my uni, my course, and the estimated period of completion.
Centrelink did the rest for me.

I assumed that because being a full time student was such an integral aspect of receiving Youth Allowance that I would be asked to prove it. But by the above posts I guess it's not as hard as I thought. I'm going for the "earn at least 19000 (or there abouts)" category.. whatever you'd like to call that. I still have a bit to earn also, but I will have it by December.
