The lease on the family home expires in August but as the Job Seeker payment will stop, the family income will drop from $1700 per fortnight down to Family Tax Benefit only which means that she will be struggling to pay the rent.
She does have a car but fuel is expensive. No family support in Australia. Her partner has disappeared and doesn't bother her but doesn't contribute to upbringing of family. She needs help with food, fuel and clothing for her children and herself.
