SeparationSense — separation finances for both households
A free Australian tool that models the ongoing financial reality of separation for both households: how much child support is paid or received, what each household can afford each week, and how Family Tax Benefit, Parenting Payment and Rent Assistance fit in — including the Maintenance Income Test, where child support received reduces Family Tax Benefit Part A.
Enter incomes, care nights, debts and living costs and see each household's net position. Ask plain-English “what-if” questions and compare scenarios. Australian rules, plain English, an estimate to plan with — not financial or legal advice, and nothing leaves your device.
