Payment of refunds
We won’t be able to tell you the exact amount of your refund until after we have received and assessed your application.
If your application for a refund is successful:
- Any fines, outstanding debt and administrative fees will be deducted prior to a refund being paid.
- We can transfer your refund into an overseas account. Transfers can take up to 6 weeks to reach your bank.
