edit Right now my brain doesnt even know how many weeks in a year :/ I just managed to look up online the disability payment pension amount here its $1,289.80 per fortnight so now just have to look up how many weeks in year.

I'm not sure where you are seeing that number as it's $877.10 per fortnight for a single person, not including any other payments (eg rent assistance, mobility allowance etc.). Just under $23k per year, which is about $17.5k per year in US dollars.
