  Hi Raiden,
  
  Any experience outside OZ is not counted sorry to say. Para maging eligible ka (based on Centerlink):
  
  To meet the work test for Parental Leave Pay you must have worked for at least:
  
  10 of the 13 months before the birth or adoption of your child, AND
  330 hours in that 10 month period, which is just over 1 day a week, with no more than an 8 week gap between 2 consecutive working days
  
  if your employer have maternity paid parental package you might need to check.
  
  All the best in your pregnancy

  thanks po sa insight @pinoykiwi_inOZ
  medyo naconfuse lang ako sa work test nila kasi ito rin nakalagay.
  
  You don’t need to be working full time to be eligible for Parental Leave Pay. You may meet the work test if you:
  •are a part time, casual, or a seasonal worker
  •are a contractor or self employed
  •work in a family business
  •have multiple employers
  •have recently changed jobs
  •are no longer employed, or
  •have worked overseas
  
  
  sa last bullet po, may nakalagay na have worked overseas. sabi rin ng friend ko na medyo matagal na dito sa OZ, try ko pa din daw mag file.
