Hi @Tristan1.  Please see attached ARNECC Guidance Note - extract specific to your query below. Kind regards, Michelle   Q23: Is the Client Authorisation form valid if my Client passes away? A23: The Client Authorisation ends upon the death of the Client, except in the case of South Australia (see section 59 of the Real Property Act 1886 (SA)). In South Australia, where a Client who has completed a Client Authorisation dies, an instrument which has been executed pursuant to that Client Authorisation after the Client’s death remains valid. In all other Jurisdictions, the death of a Client effectively renders the Client Authorisation invalid. This means that any instruments or Documents (whether signed prior to the death of the Client or not) cannot be used and cannot be Lodged for registration. ... View more

Hi @Ritz   You are able to continue to have an agent complete the duty assessment, but then remit payment via the PEXA workspace.   Still ensure that the payment will be made within the required Revenue NSW time frame.   When forwarding your documents for assessment, add a screen shot of the 'stamp duty' screen. This will provide the required reference for the Revenue NSW EDR system.   Further details can be found https://community.pexa.com.au/t5/Help-Centre/Stamp-Duty/ba-p/61   ... View more

In the relevant workspace you will go to the stamp duty screen and click on 'enter duty information'. The previous reference number will be showing so you can simply replace it with the new assessment reference. Save and the system will complete its verification. Assessment for duty are carried out in the EDR system, and the reference number entered into the workspace to confirm the assessment. If the assessment was processed as a PEXA settlement the stamp duty screen will indicate the duty is unpaid, and a destination line item will automatically be created for payment of the duty on settlement. Therefore, no 'cancellation' of the first reference number is required. Hope this resolves the issue. ... View more
