Why these months are used


The calculator asks for your eligible revenue for these specific calendar months to

  • compare your claim period reference month revenue to a certain time before the COVID-19 pandemic
  • compare your previous claim period reference month revenue to a certain time before the COVID-19 pandemic, and
  • use the better of the two rates (deeming rule)

The legislation determines which calendar months to use for the comparisons for each claim period:
