DOB is an important fact in claim processing
The client's date of birth is a critically important fact for many elements of compensation claim processing, including:
- cessation of incapacity payments upon reaching age 65;
- calculation of redemption;
- compensation for prescribed children;
- accessing preserved superannuation entitlements.
It is highly unlikely that the date of birth of a Defence Force member would not be recorded in ADF records. This date of birth recorded in ADF records must be used for all compensation processing purposes.
