118N  Simplified outline
  The following is a simplified outline of this Part:

      This Part is about payment of:
             (a) Defence Force Income Support Allowance (DFISA); and
             (b) DFISA bonus; and
             (c) DFISA‑like payments under regulations made under this Part.
      DFISA—see Division 2
      DFISA is payable to a person if the rate of the person's social security pension or benefit has been reduced (including to nil) because the person, or the person's partner, has been paid adjusted disability pension (within the meaning of this Part).
      Payment of DFISA is automatic: a person does not need to make a claim for it.
      DFISA bonus—see Division 3
      DFISA bonus is payable to a person if the amount of the person's social security pension bonus has been reduced (including to nil) because the person, or the person's partner, has been paid adjusted disability pension (within the meaning of this Part).
      Payment of DFISA bonus is also automatic.
      DFISA‑like payments—see Division 4
      Regulations made under this Part may provide for DFISA‑like payments to be paid to a person if adjusted disability pension (within the meaning of this Part) payable to the person, or the person's partner, reduces the amount of a payment payable to the person under a Commonwealth Act, regulations or an instrument made under such an Act, or a Commonwealth administered program.
