2014 3,600.00 1,200.00 360.00 5,160.00
2015 1,210.60 135.00 1,345.60
2016 1,680.00 1,680.00
2017 2.60 3,531.40 1,680.00 5,214.00
2018 10,985.40 1,680.00 12,665.40

Total 3,602.60 2,410.60 360.00 36,390.40 9,375.00 150.00 52,288.60

The person concerned closed her One Parent Family Payment on 13/11/2019 when she commenced employment and recommenced this payment on 18/06/2020 when her employment terminated.

I trust this clarifies the matter.
