Link to the Tasmanian Application for Extension of Time for Victims of Crime Assistance. The page does not give a form number. The assistance application itself is a separate statutory declaration. The extension file was not opened.

## Key facts

- Kind: Form. A form to complete, or a guide to completing an official one.
- Practice area: [Victims of Crime Support & Compensation](https://ailawframework.com/precedents/victims-of-crime-support-and-compensation.md)
- Jurisdictions: Tasmania
- AI level: Yellow. You and the tool draft together, with you directing. You check every statement you rely on.
- Law stated as at: 2026-10-22
- Status: Maintained. Checked on 2026-10-22 against the official form at justice.tas.gov.au and the 2 authorities it cites, for Tasmania.

## When to use it

Use when a Tasmanian Victims of Crime Assistance application is outside the time the financial assistance page states, and an extension is sought for special circumstances. Do not use this form as the assistance application. The child sexual abuse time limit on that page does not apply. The tool does not write the reasons.

## Used for these tasks

- [Build the victims' claim eligibility and deadline register](https://ailawframework.com/practice/victims-of-crime-support-and-compensation/build-the-victims-claim-eligibility-and-deadline-register.md)
- [Prepare the application to a state victims support scheme](https://ailawframework.com/practice/victims-of-crime-support-and-compensation/prepare-the-application-to-a-state-victims-support-scheme.md)
- [Check a victims' scheme decision against the categories and limits](https://ailawframework.com/practice/victims-of-crime-support-and-compensation/check-a-victims-scheme-decision-against-the-categories-and-limits.md)

## How AI may be used

AI may check the application pack against the current form and list missing records. The lawyer writes any account of the violence and checks every form before it is lodged.

**AI may:**

- Check the pack against the current official form and list records the opened page says to include
- Flag when a primary, family, related or extension form is being used for the wrong applicant
- List the time limits, caps and contact details stated on the page that was opened

**AI must not:**

- Must not draft the account of the violence, the effect on the person, or any words that would be lodged in the application
- Must not invent a fact, a date, a police report or a medical finding
- Must not sign or lodge the application

**The lawyer checks:**

- The extension file is the current one. The file name is not a form number
- If the current extension file is a statutory declaration, the tool writes nothing in it
- The three-year periods, and the child sexual abuse exception, are read on the current financial assistance page
- The court's or tribunal's current index is checked before assuming a generative-AI practice direction applies. None was stated on the page opened for this guide.
