on the later of the day

Hello,

could anybody tell me the meaning of this expression in the following sentence:

If a person is receiving an income replacement benefit immediately before his or her 65th birthday, the weekly amount of the benefit is adjusted, on the later of the day of the person’s 65th birthday and the second anniversary of the day the person began receiving the benefit, to the amount determined in accordance with the following formula:

Does it mean on the next day after the 65th birthday?

Thank you.

Sorry I think I already know the answer. It means either on 65th birthday or on the second anniversary..., depending what occurs later.

Hi,

No.

On the day of his 65th birthday.
Or on the second anniversary.
Whichever of these two dates is the later.
