3.3.6.1 — Periodic automatic processing runs update aspects of pensioners' financial circumstances including:

  • Commonwealth and State superannuation increases
  • managed investment and share values
  • income streams
  • exchange rate variations for overseas pensions; and
  • indexation of UK pensions.

Note:From 2004 automatic indexation only occurs to UK Government pensions. UK DSS pensions will be processed manually from this date.

Cases that cannot be processed automatically are identified for manual review action in State Offices.
