do you have to declare to centrelink how much child support you recieve? If it was a few years ago does it matter?

Hi Dearna,
My understanding is that you need to declare all monies to Centrelink. If it was a few years ago, I'm not sure if there are penalties for late or false reporting. I guess you need to decide if its worth reporting it now.
