HomeBuilder applicants to get second chance at grant after backflip
Calls for help from hundreds of distraught HomeBuilder applicants who say they unfairly missed out on the lucrative grant due to technical issues have been heeded after a backflip from the Victorian and Queensland state governments.
As first reported by nine.com.au earlier this month, a growing number of applicants thought they had successfully applied for the $15,000-$25,000 Federal Government grant through an online portal.
However, when they attempted to log back into the portal to submit further documents after the April 14 cut-off date, they found there was no record of their accounts.
