dange25 57 Posted June 11, 2009 Was wondering if anyone in Australia has used there superannuation money for their surgury?? my GP told me that this is very possible so I have started making APRA applications. Only thing is I have no idea how long it takes for the money to be released! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dange25 57 Posted July 9, 2009 very true angel. as it turns out i am in the proccess of answering that. i submitted the paper work 14 working days ago but on working day number 11 they rang me asking me to show proof of my applications for a personal loan/ rejection from financial service. of cource i neally had heart failure! so....on day 11 i trundled right over to the bank started applications for a bank loan..... sure enough we are too broke for a loan, and out comes the rejection letter.... i picked it up on day 12 and faxed it straight away. day 14 they write me saying i need proof of failed personal loan..... **upside down** i call them up and say i faxed this on day 12 and am just calling to make sure it made it to the office (again) now they cant tell me how long its going to be...i think my application went to the bottom of the pile!!!! BUGGA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dange25 57 Posted July 20, 2009 OK so it was on working day 19 that i rang up and asked how my application was going. they were delighted to tell me over the phone that the application had been approved a few days ago.... he then told me that it would take about another 5 working days to receive the the approval. (which meant i wouldnt make my payment on time therefore having to put my date back a week... bugga!!) Working day 20 I get my letter???? weirdos.... I was about to send the grant to my super fund so they can release the money but was reading the very last line where it says to ring the super fund to see if they have any release forms that have to be sent *with* the grant letter. lucky i caught that one! rang them up and they send some forms that i got in the mail day 21. I was on to them straight away with a certified copy of my drivers licence and back in the box at day 21. there is a 5 to 10 day wait on that one too!!! we will see.
