Update on Power of Attorney submissions

Oct 31, 2016

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

  • EPOAR submissions: received on 6 August 2016, 12 week waiting period
  • Manual submissions: received around 29 June 2016, 17 week waiting period

To request an expedited registration of a PoA “on cause shown” please email POA-INV@scotcourts.gov.uk inbox. This measure will allow the service to be managed appropriately and help ensure that the process is being used in cases of true urgency.
