2.3.3 Indexation of PPL income limits for PLP

Indexation

Indexation (1.1.I.50) of the individual PPL income limit (1.1.I.55) and the family PPL income limit (1.1.F.10) is in line with changes to the CPI. The effective date of indexation is 1 July each year, commencing on 1 July 2021. The indexation is based on the CPI increase in the 12 months to the previous December.

If CPI decreased in the 12 months to the previous December, the individual PPL income limit and the family PPL income limit do not change.
