An aged care nurse who lied about being unemployed to swindle Centrelink of almost $50,000 will spend three months behind bars for the fraud. Kyle Ann Rooke, 32, claimed she was unemployed when she successfully applied to Centrelink for Newstart payments and Austudy payments between 2008 and 2012. Over the four-year period she was paid $48,852 in welfare benefits despite working as an aged care nurse at Biggera Waters.
