CHILD SUPPORT (ASSESSMENT) ACT 1989 - SECT 73A

Registrar becoming aware of relevant dependent child

  (1)   If:

  (a)   an administrative assessment of child support is in force in relation to a parent; and

  (b)   the Registrar is later notified, or otherwise becomes aware, of the fact that the parent has a relevant dependent child who was not taken into account for the purposes of making the assessment;

then, for the purposes of working out the parent's relevant dependent child amount under section   46, the parent is taken to have the relevant dependent child:

  (c)   if the Registrar was notified, or otherwise became aware, of the fact that the child is a relevant dependent child of the parent within 28 days after the day on which the child became such a child--on and from the day the child became such a child; or

  (d)   if paragraph   (c) does not apply and the Registrar was notified, or otherwise became aware, of the fact within 28 days after giving a notice under section   34 (giving notice of successful application)--on and from the day on which the application was made; or

  (e)   if neither paragraph   (c) nor (d) applies--on and from the day the Registrar was notified, or otherwise became aware, of the fact that the child is a relevant dependent child of the parent.

  (2)   If the parent is a resident of a reciprocating jurisdiction, subsection   (1) has effect as if the references in paragraphs   (1)(c) and (d) to 28 days were references to 90 days.
