Both of his pay cheques. I am estimating he has received one or two pays.

Common idioms being Sepponian, a dialect based on English.
Cutting means to stop something.
A check is an investigation or examination, ie the common idiom of
"checks and balances".
"Paying money" is probably "writing cheques".

"Homeless" people in Australia do in fact have homes. That is what
bodies such as the Supported Accommodation Assistance Program does.

Education is wonderful isn't it? Shame children in your country have to
take out massive loans and work a couple of jobs to get a degree of
dubious value.

No, he was taking a cheap shot and you are doing your best to explain
it. Of course, only you believe that he actually did what he says.
