I still haven't filed my 2007/8 tax return... :

Guess I'll be waiting awhile for mine. Not that I'll actually get anything, I always have to pay more and never get a return. :

Impossible for some people, they just believe stupid things like that.
It could be done by anything, but is more then likely random.

None of the stupid rumours have proven true.

My Mrs and one of my workmates had the payment in their bank accounts this morning. This is Perth metro (yes I know it's not being done by postcode but I'm just sayin')

No cabbage for me yet >:-(

Could I make a wild assumption and say that perhaps the payments are going out in order of when you lodged your tax return last year?

Could explain why some couples are getting it at the same time and other's are a month apart.
