## How AI may be used

The tool may list records and expenses for the lawyer to check, and it writes nothing the related victim signs or declares.

**AI may:**

- List relationship, police and expense documents already on the file, with dates and sources
- Build a schedule of receipts and other payments for the lawyer to check against the form's declaration questions
- Note whether the form's work, dangerous-driving and 3-year questions need an answer

**AI must not:**

- Must not write the account of the death, the reasons for delay, or the answers about other payments
- Must not write anything in a signature or declaration block, including any block on pages that were not opened
- Must not decide eligibility, the distress or dependency amount, or whether an extension should be asked for

**The lawyer checks:**

- Form 7 version 4, effective 14 September 2023, and every page returned, including blank pages
- The applicant is a related victim of a Queensland homicide, and each relative has a separate form
- Workers' compensation or CTP finalised where the form requires it, and the current insurer phone number
- Other payments declared, identity attached, and a child or administered person's distress and dependency payment directed as the form states section 94
- The lawyer is in Q12 and the client signs
