During bankruptcy – travel
Alisha is bankrupt and works as a real estate agent. Her trustee is the Official Trustee (AFSA). In the second year of her bankruptcy, Alisha needed to travel to New Zealand to attend a conference for work.
Alisha was aware that during bankruptcy, she needed to get permission from her trustee to travel overseas. She went onto the AFSA website, completed the online travel form, and paid the fee.
AFSA assessed Alisha's application and sent her a letter confirming she had permission to travel. Alisha carried the letter with her when she travelled to New Zealand.
When she returned from overseas, she informed her trustee by completing AFSA's online form to update her travel details.
