    Hi there, I’m from Australia! Do you guys not get government funding for your care? I put ads in employment agency websites which I pay for from the government funding.

    Yes, I get a yearly budget. I run my pays every fortnight. Provide them with the pay receipts and withdraw money to match. I set my own pay rates against the maximum pay rate that I am funded for. The gap between what they give me and what I pay caregivers I use to pay for superannuation, taxation and insurance. If I’m careful with my budget. I can pay for other things as well.
