edit: AUS, i mean, not NZ. i thought you were from new zealand at first for some reason. something about "kiwis" or somethin like that |
We have the loan for tuition fees here and the good thing about it is it's interest free for as long as you stay in NZ. You can also get a weekly $150, and a one off $1000 loan for "miscellaneous expenses" - gotta pay that all back one day though.
My parents literally made no money in the last two years and I haven't been able to prove it to the tax department - if I did I could get about $180 per week and never have to repay.
