HINTS:*
Consider a LEFT JOIN of the two tables.
A date comparison can be used to cull the undesired records from the join.

A LEFT JOIN is suggested because it's not clear if all records are always in both tables. The left side of the join would, of course, be the table to which there may/may not be a match (i.e., the primary table). If they're always 1:1, then you can use an inner join.

* Without the schema for the two tables, all I can do is give you a push in the right direction.
