    You need to contact the operating airline - in this case MH. They should be able to search using your name DOB. While on the phone with them ask them for the MH PNR.

    I'm not sure why do you think she has to sell the house?. Selling the house while she can still live in it will actually worsen her financial position brcause instead of the house being exempt from calculating the pension, the proceeds from selling the house will not be exempt from...

    Depends on you level of independence and the NH. It may be more appropriate to live in own home and get aged care packages to provide things like cleaners etc. UberEats is the ultimate meals on wheels Alternatively some people take their $$$ and move to somewhere OS where there is greater...

    Sounded to me (initially) as a dramatic start to a novel👍 In fairness to you, I don't think a lot of people have planned for this either. Effectively and rough round numbers to be self funding in Australia for a nursing home placement can require $1M in savings. So a lot of people if they ever...
