13 week waiting period for Powers of Attorney being submitted manually to OPG Scotland

Power of Attorney (PoA) Update – Manual Submissions

There is currently a 13 week waiting period before your PoA can be processed and returned to you. This week we will be working on PoAs received on and around 8th July 2013.

If there is a genuine urgency, we will expedite the registration of a PoA ‘on cause shown’. We ask that people respect this service and only use it in cases of true urgency to avoid defeating its purpose.”

More on this can be fund here and Electronic Power of Attorney submission (EPOAR) here. EPOAR is proving to be very successful and is being looked at enviously by practitioners in the rest of the UK.
