If an insured (including a former insured; hereinafter referred to as a "specific insured") had a dependent spouse (meaning a person who fell under Article 7, paragraph (1), item (iii) of the National Pension Act as the spouse of the specific insured; the same applies hereinafter) during the time that the person was an insured, but the specific insured and the dependent spouse thereof have divorced or annulled their marriage or have come to fall under any other circumstances specified by Order of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare as equivalent thereto, the dependent spouse may file a request with the implementing organization for the standardized remuneration to be revised or decided (meaning the standardized remuneration of the specific insured and the dependent spouse thereof; the same applies hereinafter in this Chapter) for the insured period (excluding an insured period for which the standardized remuneration was already revised or decided pursuant to the provisions of the following paragraph and paragraph (3); the same applies hereinafter in this Article) that fell under the specific period (meaning the period during which the specific insured was an insured and the dependent spouse thereof was a class III insured who is as specified in Article 7, paragraph (1), item (iii) of the National Pension Act as a spouse of that specific insured; the same applies hereinafter); provided, however, that this does not apply if, as of the day of the request, the relevant specific insured is the beneficiary of an employees' disability pension (limited to one in an amount that is calculated based in whole or in part on the relevant specific period; the same applies to Article 78-20), or in other cases specified by Order of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.

If the request referred to in the preceding paragraph has been filed, the implementing organization may revise or decide the standardized monthly amount of remuneration of the relevant specific insured and the relevant dependent spouse to be the amount arrived at when the specific insured's standardized monthly amount of remuneration is multiplied by 50%, for each month of the insured period that falls during the specific period (or the amount arrived at when the previous standardized monthly amount of remuneration specified in Article 26, paragraph (1) is multiplied by 50%, for each month in which the previous standardized monthly amount of remuneration is deemed to be the standardized monthly amount of remuneration pursuant to the provisions of that paragraph).

If the request under paragraph (1) has been filed, the implementing organization may revise or decide the standardized amount of bonuses of the specific insured and the dependent spouse to be the amount arrived at when the specific insured standardized amount of bonus is multiplied by 50%, for each month of the insured period that falls during the specific period for which the specific insured in question had a standardized amount of bonus.

In a case as referred to in the preceding two paragraphs, an insured period that falls during the specific period is deemed to be an insured period for the dependent spouse.
