Re: $10k Bond has been invested
Hi SS,
just need to ask you a couple of questions. i am just filling in form 1134-part 2. it asks which assets were used to fund the $100,000. Mine as come from savings, so do i just simply put that?
Also, i know i need to courier this form and the bond application to Western Australia. how do i go about arranging a courier and who did u use? do they just collect the letter from your house/work etc?
your help is much appreciated
cheers

Re: $10k Bond has been invested
Hi threlly,
Savings would be fine (I put Combination of Savings and Capital as that is what I used).
Also, just put your name, thats all I did with my form and I have a partner.
Finally after using Parcel Force in the past I used DHL this time round. They were great, I phoned the Customer Service centre and arranged a pick-up from my work. I paid the driver in cash (£46.50...steep but they are all the same). So far so good, takes 3 days to arrive in Melbourne and you can track it.
Hows it going with HIFX? Have you bought the 100k??

Re: $10k Bond has been invested
Hi SS,
thanks for your help, it is very much appreciated.
$46.50, , £46.50 NO WAY FOR 3 PIECES OF PAPER.
I hope it gets its own first class seat on a quantas flight for that cost. Do i have to courier my papers, could i just send them visa normal airmail (registered or something?)
I sent my id to HIFX yesterday. they will probably get them 2morrow, so they should call me 2morrow i hope. the exchange rate is pants at the mo. 2.398888. what rate did u get?
cheers for your help. ARE U SURE YOU DIDNT MEAN £4.60?

Re: $10k Bond has been invested
Hi threlly,
I saw that the rate is v.low at the mo, the lowest it has ever been i think. I got it at 2.44, not bad. I studied the form and made the call the day before the US elections, then it plummeted.
Yep £46.50.....sod it, its the last thing I need to mail, andit dont really make that much difference to the £2.7k I have spent on this application so far. But agreed, it is damned expensive. Peace of mind and all that I suppose (hope!!).
Good Luck tomorrow.

Re: $10k Bond has been invested
PS..dont forget to take 2-3 cents off the rate on the HIFX charts. I guess this is for their commission.

Hi threlly,
For the application to HIFX forms I think I filled them out by hand and posted them back.
For the bond payment form I just filled it out online.
It was all nice and easy.
