Hi I've just been confronted by Centrelink who have gone back TEN years and discovered that I over and UNDER esatimated my earnings when I was doing casual work whist on DSP. I'm now on an aged pension, 3 years, and of course living in poverty, I'm renting and they want to recoup their pultry, for them, $200. I guessed my casual wage to the best of my ability as I had to tell Centrelink my guestiment half way through my casual work fortnight. If they had done their job and told me my underestimate when I was earning a paltry amount to survive I could and most happily paid them their money, but now I'm living beyond poverty and $200 is way beyond my means BUT THEY want their money. I don't think it's fair and is there anything I can do about it? I have agreed to repay $10 a fortnight but as anyone on a pension paying rent would know that's nealy half a weeks food money. 

  Cheers, Doug S
