Update on Power of Attorney Submissions

There is a waiting period before your power of attorney (PoA) can be processed and returned to you.

• EPOAR submissions: 24 day waiting period, we are working on PoAs received on and around 18th July 2014
• Manual submissions: 27 week waiting period, we are working on PoAs received on and around 21st February 2014

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.”
