Departmental Instruction

The pensioners on this report are those who will not be in receipt of rent assistance after 1 October 1997 because they are in an aged care facility.

Each report should be kept generally for about 6 months.  This will provide sufficient time to cover possible appeals.  Please note although pension related details will be available via the pension systems and on file, this will be the only historical record that DVA will have of the actual excess income and effective date provided to DH&FS.
