How Our Calculator Works
Our Family Tax Benefit Calculator uses the official payment rates and income test thresholds published by the Australian Government through Services Australia. When you enter your family income, select your family type, and add your children's ages, our calculator applies the same formulas used to determine actual FTB payments.
The calculator considers:
- Age-based payment rates for FTB Part A (different rates for ages 0-4, 5-12, 13-15, and 16-19)
- Family type considerations for FTB Part B (single parent vs. couple)
- Income test thresholds and reduction rates
- Rent assistance eligibility
All calculations are performed locally in your browser, meaning your personal financial information never leaves your device or is stored on our servers.
Important Note
While we strive for accuracy, our calculator provides estimates only. Actual FTB payments are determined by Services Australia based on your complete circumstances, including factors our calculator may not account for (such as shared care arrangements, immunisation requirements, or income support interactions). For official payment information, always contact Services Australia on 132 150 or visit their website.
