Darkwing Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 They will need you to sign a form in order to release the money. Speak to Tanya - very helpful. She will be able to tell you how to go about it. I used the company with no problems at all whilst I was still in SA. Do you have someone there who has power of attorney for you?.

Bronwyn&Co Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) Diesel Mech - in Australia you can get certified copies done by a JP (Justice of the Peace). You can usually find one at your nearest library, police station, bank, or as I recently found out, your pharmacy Also local council offices can usually do it. It can be a bit of a schlepp to find out when and where, because often they only do it on one day a week, but after that, it's all good. Just ask around.

Gerhardk Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Even the post office will certify though they charge a fee. I found a South African Commissioner of Oaths in Perth with jursidiction from the embassy in Canberra, not sure where you are though.

miraclebabycaw Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 a flight ticket is only required if you are making use of your travel allowance for the year. For that though I think you have to still be in SA. For the 1M discretionary allowance I think you also still need to be in SA but don't quote me on that. Exchagne4free can probably help with power of attorneys or such. Alternatively you can get someone to send it to you as a gift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
