Employees who retire or resign from their Commonwealth employment, and who have an ongoing entitlement to incapacity payments will need to be set up on PRACSYS as direct payees.
Alternatively, dependants of deceased employees need to be recorded on PRACSYS where there is an entitlement to weekly payments.
Before we look at setting up payees in more detail, let's look at the consequences of changing from one payment process to another.
Please note that, as we discuss direct payments, we will more commonly refer to employees, as distinct from dependants. This is because direct payees are predominantly employees. However, the processes remain the same for both categories of payee.
