Sections 4 to 23 contain definitions of terms that are used in the social security law.
Subsection 23(1) contains an entry for each expression that is defined for the purposes of this Act. That subsection is like a Dictionary.
The entry is either an actual definition of the expression or a signpost definition that identifies the provision that defines the expression.
Many other sections in this Part contain the actual definitions relating to a particular topic. For example, sections 4 and 5 contain family relationship definitions and section 8 contains income test definitions.
Method statement
Step 1. Identify each period of continuous seasonal work by the person that ended during the 6 months immediately before the day on which the claim was lodged. If the person has performed seasonal work during 2 periods that are less than 14 days apart, the periods of work and the intervening period are taken to be one continuous period during which the person has performed seasonal work.
Step 2. If a period identified in Step 1 has already been taken into account when working out a seasonal work preclusion period in relation to a previous claim by the person (whether for the same or a different allowance or payment), disregard the period. Each remaining period is called a relevant period of seasonal work .
Step 3. Work out the amount of seasonal work income earned by the person during each of the person's relevant periods of seasonal work, disregarding any income by way of a lump sum that was earned during that period but was not paid to the person before the day on which the claim was lodged.
Step 4. Add together the amounts worked out in Step 3. The result is called the person's seasonal work earnings .
Step 5. Divide the person's seasonal work earnings by the amount of the relevant AWOTE for the calendar year in which the claim was lodged. The result is called the person's AWOTE weeks and represents the number of weeks (including any part of a week) that a person paid at a rate equal to the relevant AWOTE for that calendar year would have to work to earn an amount equal to the person's seasonal work earnings.
Step 6. Work out the number of weeks in the person's relevant periods of seasonal work by dividing the total number of days included in those periods by 7. The result (including any part of a week) is called the person's seasonal work weeks .
Step 6A. If there is a period between one relevant period of seasonal work and another, or between a relevant period of seasonal work and the day on which the claim was lodged, work out the number of weeks in the period (the intervening period ). This is done by dividing the total number of days in the intervening period by 7.
Step 6B. If there is more than one intervening period, add together the number of weeks worked out for each intervening period. The result (including any part of a week) is called the person's intervening weeks .
Step 6C. Add together the number of seasonal work weeks worked out under Step 6 and the number of intervening weeks (if any) worked out under Step 6B. The result (including any part of a week) is called the person's self - supported weeks .
Step 7. Subtract the person's self - supported weeks from the person's AWOTE weeks. The result (rounded down, if necessary, to the nearest whole number) is the number of weeks in the person's seasonal work preclusion period . If the result is a negative number, the number of weeks in the period is taken to be nil.

Step 1. Identify each period of continuous seasonal work by the person that ended during the 6 months immediately before the day on which the claim was lodged. If the person has performed seasonal work during 2 periods that are less than 14 days apart, the periods of work and the intervening period are taken to be one continuous period during which the person has performed seasonal work.
Step 2. If a period identified in Step 1 has already been taken into account when working out a seasonal work preclusion period in relation to a previous claim by the person (whether for the same or a different allowance or payment), disregard the period. Each remaining period is called a relevant period of seasonal work .
Step 3. Work out the amount of seasonal work income earned by the person during each of the person's relevant periods of seasonal work, disregarding any income by way of a lump sum that was earned during that period but was not paid to the person before the day on which the claim was lodged.
Step 4. Add together the amounts worked out in Step 3. The result is called the person's seasonal work earnings .
Step 5. Work out the total amount of income from personal exertion earned by the person's partner during the person's relevant periods of seasonal work. Add the amount obtained to the person's seasonal work earnings. The result is called the couple's combined earnings .
Step 6. Divide the couple's combined earnings by twice the amount of the relevant AWOTE for the calendar year in which the claim was lodged. The result is called the couple's AWOTE weeks and represents the number of weeks (including any part of a week) that 2 persons, each paid at a rate equal to the relevant AWOTE for that calendar year, would have to work to earn together an amount equal to the couple's combined earnings.
Step 7. Work out the number of weeks in the person's relevant periods of seasonal work by dividing the total number of days included in those periods by 7. The result (including any part of a week) is called the person's seasonal work weeks .
Step 7A. If there is a period between one relevant period of seasonal work and another, or between a relevant period of seasonal work and the day on which the claim was lodged, work out the number of weeks in the period (the intervening period ). This is done by dividing the total number of days in the intervening period by 7.
Step 7B. If there is more than one intervening period, add together the number of weeks worked out for each intervening period. The result (including any part of a week) is called the person's intervening weeks .
Step 7C. Add together the number of seasonal work weeks worked out under Step 7 and the number of intervening weeks (if any) worked out under Step 7B. The result (including any part of a week) is called the person's self - supported weeks .
Step 8. Subtract the person's self - supported weeks from the couple's AWOTE weeks. The result (rounded down, if necessary, to the nearest whole number) is the number of weeks in the person's seasonal work preclusion period . If the result is a negative number, the number of weeks in the period is taken to be nil.
Method statement
Step 1. Identify each period of continuous seasonal work by the partner that ended during the 6 months immediately before the day on which the claim was lodged. If the partner has performed seasonal work during 2 periods that are less than 14 days apart, the periods of work and the intervening period are taken to be one continuous period during which the partner has performed seasonal work.
Step 2. If a period identified in Step 1 has already been taken into account when working out a seasonal work preclusion period in relation to a previous claim by the person (whether for the same or a different allowance or payment), disregard the period. Each remaining period is called a relevant period of seasonal work .
Step 3. Work out the total amount of income from personal exertion earned by the person during the partner's relevant periods of seasonal work. The result is called the person's earnings .
Step 4. Work out the amount of seasonal work income earned by the partner during each of the partner's relevant periods of seasonal work, disregarding any income by way of a lump sum that was earned during that period but was not paid to the partner before the day on which the claim was lodged.
Step 5. Add together the amounts worked out in Step 4. The result is called the partner's seasonal work earnings .
Step 6. Add the partner's seasonal work earnings and the person's earnings. The result is called the couple's combined earnings .
Step 7. Divide the couple's combined earnings by twice the amount of the relevant AWOTE for the calendar year in which the claim was lodged. The result is called the couple's AWOTE weeks and represents the number of weeks (including any part of a week) that 2 persons, each paid at a rate equal to the relevant AWOTE for that calendar year, would have to work to earn together an amount equal to the couple's combined earnings.
Step 8. Work out the number of weeks in the partner's relevant periods of seasonal work by dividing the total number of days included in those periods by 7. The result (including any part of a week) is called the partner's seasonal work weeks .
Step 8A. If there is a period between one relevant period of seasonal work and another, or between a relevant period of seasonal work and the day on which the claim was lodged, work out the number of weeks in the period (the intervening period ). This is done by dividing the total number of days in the intervening period by 7.
Step 8B. If there is more than one intervening period, add together the number of weeks worked out for each intervening period. The result (including any part of a week) is called the partner's intervening weeks .
Step 8C. Add together the number of seasonal work weeks worked out under Step 8 and the number of intervening weeks (if any) worked out under Step 8B. The result (including any part of a week) is called the partner's self - supported weeks .
Step 9. Subtract the partner's self - supported weeks from the couple's AWOTE weeks. The result (rounded down, if necessary, to the nearest whole number) is the number of weeks in the person's seasonal work preclusion period . If the result is a negative number, the number of weeks in the period is taken to be nil.
Method statement
Step 1. Work out what would be the number of weeks in the person's seasonal work preclusion period if subsection (6) applied to the person.
Step 2. Work out what would be the number of weeks in the person's seasonal work preclusion period if subsection (7) applied to the person.
Step 3. Compare the number of weeks in each period. The number of weeks in the person's seasonal work preclusion period is equal to the number of weeks in the longer of the 2 periods.

ï· A person who qualifies for an age pension but defers claiming that pension may be able to get a single lump - sum pension bonus .
ï· A person who wants to get a pension bonus must register as a member of the pension bonus scheme . An application for registration cannot be made on or after 1 July 2014.
ï· To get a pension bonus, a person must accrue between 1 and 5 bonus periods while deferring age pension.
ï· Generally, a bonus period runs for 1 year.
ï· To accrue a bonus period, the person must pass the work test for that period.
ï· To pass the work test for a year, either the person, or the person's partner, must gainfully work for at least 960 hours during that year.
