Example

A determination for the father's case establishes the following:

• the claim is eligible from 1st January 2001 up to 30th June 2005 inclusive
• the father is entitled to:
  • $20 per week from 1st January 2001 to 31st May 2002 inclusive; and
  • $25 per week from 1st June 2002 to 30th June 2005 inclusive;
• the explanation of the case varies:
  • father passes all eligibility criteria from 1st January 2001 to 30th June 2005 inclusive;
  • father fails the "lone" condition from 1st July 2005 to 31st January 2010 inclusive; and
  • father fails the income means test from 1st February 2010 until further notice.

The dates on which items change can be combined to carve up the case's lifetime into these coverage periods (where the eligibility, entitlement and explanation is constant throughout each coverage period):

• 1st January 2001 to 31st May 2002 inclusive;
• 1st June 2002 to 30th June 2005 inclusive;
• 1st July 2005 to 31st January 2010 inclusive; and
• 1st February 2010 until further notice.
