87 Simplified outline of this Division
This Division works out the amount the non‑member spouse is entitled to be paid under a payment split for a splittable payment for a superannuation interest of the member spouse if the superannuation interest:
(a) is not a percentage‑only interest; and
(b) is covered by a superannuation agreement, flag lifting agreement or splitting order; and
(c) is in the payment phase either at the date the agreement is served on the trustee under section 90XI or 90YM of the Act, or at the date of the splitting order (as applicable).
Different approaches apply for working out this amount depending on whether the payment split is the first or only payment split applicable to the splittable payment, or is the second or a later payment split.
