172.1. To set the date on which an orphan’s pension or a disabled contributor’s child’s pension becomes payable, Retraite Québec may, if circumstances justify it, use the date of the application for any benefit related to the death of the contributor or the date of the application for a disability pension. Unless warranted by exceptional circumstances in the opinion of Retraite Québec, retroactivity is limited to 36 months, including the month the application for the orphan’s pension or disabled contributor’s child’s pension is submitted.
