The dates that decide whether you get paid
Security of Payment gives a subcontractor a right to be paid that does not depend on the builder agreeing. It runs on dates, the dates differ from state to state, and missing one can end an entitlement that was worth tens of thousands of dollars.
These three work those dates out for New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria, using the same engine that runs inside YourCA. No account, no address, and each answer shows the section of the Act it came from so you can check it.
The reference date, the earliest day you may serve, when their payment schedule is due and when the payment itself falls due.
I have served a claim. What happens nowEvery statutory deadline that runs from service, each with the section it comes from and what it costs to miss it.
They did not send a payment scheduleWhat the Act says happens when the schedule never arrives, and the dates you have to work to from here.
On a real job, you do not type any of this
YourCA reads your head contract, works out the dates it puts on you and warns you before each one closes: claim day three days out, a variation notice window two days before it shuts, their payment schedule the day it is late. Every figure shows the clause it came from.
