63A Amendment of assessment based on election if event affecting accuracy of estimate occurs

(1) This section allows the Registrar to amend an assessment of child support payable by or to a parent for some days in a child support period if: (a) the parent has made an election under section 60 relating to the period; and (b) the Registrar has given the parent a notice under section 160 requiring the parent to notify the Registrar of the occurrence of an event that may affect the accuracy of an estimate on which the election is based. (2) If the parent gives notice of the event as required by section 160, the Registrar may amend the assessment to affect the annual rate of child support payable by or to the parent for the days in the child support period on or after the day the parent gives notice. (3) If the parent does not give notice of the event as required by section 160, the Registrar may amend the assessment to affect the annual rate of child support payable by or to the parent for the days in the child support period on or after the day the event occurred. (4) This section does not: (a) affect the operation of section 160; or (b) prevent the Registrar from making a new assessment for part of the child support period.

Note: This section does not limit the power under section 75 to amend assessments (see subsection 75(5)).
