Update on power of attorney submissions

May 15, 2017

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 9 February 2017, 13 week waiting period
  • Manual submissions: received around 13 January 2017, 17 week waiting period 

We provide an expedited registration service for PoAs “on cause shown”. It is currently taking 3-5 days to process expedited requests. For cases that need to be processed urgently, please email opg@scotcourts.gov.uk inbox
