Child Support Act 1991

Exemptions - Determinations in relation to exemptions for hospital patients, persons suffering from long-term periods of illness, prisoners, and persons under 16 years

89U: Subsequent applications

You could also call this:

“Asking for another exemption after your first request”

If you’ve already asked for an exemption and received a decision, you can only ask again if you have new information to share. The person in charge will look at your new request and the information you’ve provided. They’ll compare it to what you shared before. If they think your new information is different enough, they’ll consider your request. If not, they can say no without looking into it further. If they do say no, they have to tell you why in writing.
