Tell us about your debt and how has this affected you? e.g. anxiety levels, financial and accommodation stress: 

It's was for income earned 5 years before so l have no paper work and the company l worked for no longer exists. Did my tax return every year , so if there was a problem it should of been sorted then. So l end up with like $300 a fortnight and my daughter and I have become homeless. My daughter is couch surfing and lm in the car . Disgusted with the way we've been treated . And as l have not got my pay slips from 5 years ago there's nothing l can do. I've rung and told them of our hardship but they don't care that they forced us into homelessness

How do you feel about the way the Government has handled this process?: 

Disgusted as there's no one l can prove anything now . When tried to fight l was just told l wouldn't win anyway. The liberal government has a lot to answer for
