Perhaps. Although someone suggested to me this morning that it is being dished out in accordance with the numerical order of tax file numbers. Which is certainly plausible.

Just recieved mine. It seems to be coming via postcodes or something. I put my tax in late Oct and got it the same time as a mate (who lives in the same area) in the office who put his in the 2nd week of July. But none of the other people in the office had recieved theirs yet.

Got mine today, I think along with the Mrs! You Bewdy!
I put my tax in on Oct 31, so I don't think it's to do with when you put your tax in.

The cabbage has arrived! It came in today's mail.

Now, what to do with it? I would most likely have put it on the home loan, but the audio unit in the wagon died and I need to sort out a replacement and upgrade!

I'd love to spend the lot on a dvd/mp3 player and roof mounted screen, but I'm not sure the treasury offical would approve of me spending the lot on the car.

We've been after a coffee machine for a while since the last one we had went kaput over a year ago.

Either way, it'll be spent as Kevin has intended.

It should be clearer instantly, but of course it depends on just how greedy your financial institution is.
