3.2.2 When to apply
1.
An application for a support payment must be made within 12 months of the start of the period of absence on defence service to which the application relates, whether or not the period of absence has been completed.
2.
Despite subsection 1, an application that is made after that 12 month period may be accepted by the CDF if satisfied that exceptional circumstances justify doing so.
3.2.3 Member applicant with more than one business
If a member is employed in more than one business that is related to the member, an application for only one of the businesses may be submitted for a support payment.
Note: The hours that the member works in all of the related businesses may be combined under subsection 2.1.4.2 for the benefit of the applicant.
