An application was received on 15 May 2008 requesting the transfer of 4.02 Single Payment entitlements from a deceased person to the person named under the 2008 scheme year. Under the will of the deceased, other persons are the rightful beneficiaries of the Single Payment entitlements. Before the requested transfer can be completed, these persons must indicate their intention, if they so wish, to waive their rights in favour of the person named. To date we have received three such waivers and the relevant number of entitlements has been transferred to the person named. Upon receipt of the remaining two waivers, the balance of the entitlements can be transferred and the balancing payment can issue. An official from my Department is in contact with the person named regarding this matter.
