The Australian Financial Security Authority will be closed over the Christmas holiday period from 5:30pm Friday 24 December 2021, and will reopen on Tuesday 4 January 2022.

If you intend to lodge an application or document, it is recommended that you submit it as soon as possible to allow sufficient time for processing. 

During this time, limited emergency services will be available by calling 1300 364 785.

While we have limited available services during the break, our online resources including online services will still be available.

Please note that due to Christmas closure, processing times for applications will take longer to finalise.
