Hi, does anyone know if you can still keep your EPA if you apply for the Carers wage as apposed to the Carers allowance?
Thanks

Hi @Koha, welcome to SANE 🙂 It's great to see you here!
Hoping that @Shaz51's post has been helpful and provides you the answers you were looking for.
I am wondering if you were to explore this further, would you consider looking into centrelink's payment processes, inclusion and exclusion criteria?
Look foward to hearing from you 🙂
